We are delighted to invite you to Benromach Distillery and Malt Whisky Centre.


On the outskirts of the Royal Burgh and ancient market town of Forres lies Benromach Distillery, the smallest working distillery in Speyside. Here whisky was first made in the final year of the 19th Century.

Benromach continues to produce its golden spirit for connoisseurs the "world o'er" to savour and enjoy.

Founded in 1898, this imposing distillery lay silent and empty for a number of years and suffered many closures and changes in ownership prior to 1993, when malt whisky specialists, Gordon & MacPhail, rescued it. They set about an extensive re-installation programme to bring Benromach back to its former glory. HRH Prince of Wales officially re-opened the distillery in its Centenary year.

Now you can see the mash tun, the burnished copper stills and the brass spirit safe where the distiller's craft creates the unique qualities of the single malt.

Now in production, Benromach displays all the traditional warm characteristics once so evident in this Speyside distillery.

Benromach visitor centreDuring your visit discover the time-honoured skills, which bring together locally grown barley, yeast and the cool, clear water from the nearby Romach Hills, to produce a whisky full of character and distinction and one that remains true to its heritage.

'Nose' and enjoy a dram of the award-winning Benromach Single Malt in the old Drier House, now our Malt Whisky Centre.

Here you can learn about the different types of whiskies produced in the Highlands, Lowlands, Islay and the Islands of Scotland. And of course here in Speyside, where the majority of single malt whisky distilleries are to be found.

A wide range of single malts as well as exclusive Benromach gifts are available at the Malt Whisky Centre shop to bring back memories of your visit to Speyside, Forres and Benromach Distillery.
