Benriach and Longmorn constributes to the Chivas Regal blend. From the book 'The Scottish Collection' Classic Malts by Carol P. Shaw: Tasting notes : A medium bodied, fruity whisky with sweetish overtones and a gently malty finish. A new bottling has been available from the distillery since 1994. Taste rating = 4 Originally built in 1898, Benriach was closed in 1990, after recession hit the previously booming whisky industry. It was refitted and reopened in 1965, although not completely modernized, still retaining its hand turned malting floor. The company is owned by Segram, and most of its produce goes into their blends. Although the distillery now produces its own, official bottling, this is still not an easy whisky ot come across. |
