BenRiach Smoke Season Single Malt Scotch Whiskey

BenRiach Smoke Season SM Scotch is an embodiment of BenRiach Distillery's commitment to doing things differently. Founded in 1898 in the northern region of Speyside, BenRiach has always been known for its unique approach to whisky production. Their philosophy is rooted in a creative approach to whisky distillation, cask maturation, and blending, all driven by the relentless pursuit of exceptional flavor. This philosophy is deeply ingrained in every step of the whisky-making process at BenRiach. The distillery prides itself on distilling three distinct styles of whisky, each matured in a diverse range of cask types, including classic unpeated, Highland peat-smoked, and small batches of triple-distilled whisky. The rich layers of Speyside taste that define BenRiach's whiskies are derived from "fruit-forward" distillation, the use of mineral-rich water, a unique four-infusion mashing process (as opposed to the usual three), and the practice of onsite floor maltings where locally sourced barley is turned by hand.
