The Benriach distillery was founded in 1898 by John Duff.
Of robust beauty, the Benriach distillery stands on the site of the former Riach farm in north Speyside and draws its water source from the mineral-rich underground aquifer found deep within the distillery grounds.
Benriach Distillery has an unconventional heritage in whiskey making producing three styles of whisky: Classic Unpeated, Highland Peated and Triple Distilled.

Benriach is one of two remaining distilleries in Speyside that distills whisky using malted barley from its own floor maltings, celebrating a tradition that began when John Duff first founded the distillery in 1898.

For most of the year they source Scottish barley malted in Speyside to make Benriach whisky, however for one month each year local Scottish barley comes to the distillery and they celebrate the ancient tradition of malting the barley by hand at the historic malting house floor. They call it “Malting Season.”

Longmorn has quietly provided a sweet, deeply fruity component to a multitude of blends since its founding.
Its ferments are long, distillation is carried out in eight thick-necked stills, which gives a brew heavy enough to age well in both ex-Sherry and ex-Bourbon.
Longmorn was built by one one of the most interesting whiskey entrepreneurs of the 19th century, John Duff, who built Longmorn in 1893.
Five years later he built another plant next door: Benriach.

Inspired by a photograph of Port of Leith by Blair Bowman

The first single malt distillery recently opened in Scotland's capital in a century, the Port of Leith Distillery, founded by Ian Stirling and Paddy Fletcher, a vertical distillery, meaning that some small parts of the production process can be fed by gravity.
The still room, with a stunning view of the Firth of Forth, is the perfect place to dream of an incredibly complex and balanced spirit, delicious and seductive flavors held in perfect harmony.
Port of Leith is beginning its path to achieve this, with the commitment to create a unique whiskey that will never stop.
