About BenRiach:

Distillery founder John Duff travelled to Kentucky and South Africa in pursuit of whisky adventures, returning to Scotland in 1898 to build the BenRiach Distillery. It is in his adventurous spirit that BenRiach boldly approaches the art of distillation and cask maturation. We call it BenRiach Maltology®

As progressive Speyside whisky distillers, BenRiach crafts unpeated, peated and triple distilled malt whisky and holds

some of the most experimental casks in Speyside. Small wonder the distillery team have nicknamed the distillery

‘The Lab’.

We are one of just two remaining distilleries in Speyside to distill whisky using malted barley from its own onsite floor

maltings, a time honoured method that is celebrated for one month each year.

Welcome to BenRiach Maltology.

Rachel Barrie: Master Blender

Rachel Barrie started her 26 year career in whisky after graduating with a first class honours in chemistry from Edinburgh University. Her first experience of malt whisky began in the Garioch district in Aberdeenshire, where she was born and brought up to appreciate the nuances of the locally distilled malt whisky. Rachel is the Master Blender for The GlenDronach, BenRiach and Glenglassaugh distilleries.
