Benromach Organic Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Situated on the outskirts of the ancient Royal Borough of Forres, Benromach Distillery was founded in 1898 by Duncan McCallum, a former distiller at the Glen Nevis Distillery in Campbeltown, and FW Brickman, a former spirits broker from Edinburgh. After just two short years of operation, McCallum and Brickman were forced to close the doors to Benromach Distillery and since then, the distillery has changed hands a number of times. In 1993, malt whisky specialists Gordon and MacPhail acquired the distillery and began refurbishing it. The experts at Gordon and MacPhail took five years to re-equip the distillery with two new stills and secure the water rights to Champelton Springs in Romach Hills. On October 15, 1998, Benromach Distillery was officially reopened by Prince Charles of Wales.When first released in 2006, this Benromach single malt was the first in its class, distinguishing itself as the first Soil Association-certified organic single malt. Made from organic Scottish barley this whisky is aged in barrels made from specially selected virgin American oak. The organic single malt is non-chill-filtered and bottled at 43 percent. This pioneering single malt received 92 Points at the 2014 Ultimate Beverage Challenge.Pick up your bottle today!
