Unique amongst many

The Spey Valley, in which the BenRiach distillery was built in 1898, is home to many of Scotland’s great whiskies, but the BenRiach has its own uniqueness – borne from the particular methods and skills of the BenRiach men who craft the whisky, the ingredients they use, the distinctive copper stills and high quality barrels selected for maturation.

And, BenRiach boasts one further special difference – standing apart from the other Spey Valley distilleries, the traditional floor maltings with their distinctive pagoda style chimneys can produce peated, malted barley, enabling the distillery to capture the defining taste of peat reek in a few of their special bottlings.

As a result, in addition to the trul great aged bottlings at 12, 16, 20, 25 and 30 years old, The BenRiach Distillery Company also includes two peated single malt expressions within the portfolio; the aptly named 'Curiositas', aged 10 years old, and its big brother, the 21 years old 'Authenticus', both of which will delight and surprise both whisky connoisseur and newcomer alike.
