Scotch Whisky is a distilled alcoholic beverage produced in Scotland. Its taste is renowned for its complexity, which varies significantly depending on the region of production and the ageing process. The origin of Scotch Whisky production dates back to at least the 15th century, with early records indicating distillation by monks. Over time, the process evolved, and regulations were established to ensure quality and authenticity.
Common flavour profiles include: Smoky/Peaty: From the use of peat-smoked barley during the malting process. Fruity: Notes of apple, pear, and dried fruits, Spicy: Hints of cinnamon, nutmeg, and pepper and Sweet: Undertones of honey, caramel, and vanilla, derived from oak cask ageing.
The Original Ten is three cask matured for at least ten years in bourbon barrels, sherry casks and virgin oak for a perfect introduction to our signature style and richly layered Speyside Single Malt.
The wood rich Highland peat we use to craft peated BenRiach spirit is sourced from the region’s fertile landscape, imparting sweet, smoky campfire notes into our whisky.

The Smoky Twelve is the perfect marriage of fruit, malt, oak and rich layers of smoke. Three cask matured in an unconventional mix of bourbon, sherry and Marsala this creamy and smooth single malt is multilayered with flavours of ripened fruit, aromatic smoky sweetness and warming oak spice.
