2018 World Whisky Awards Success

Benromach 15 Years Old single malt was crowned the winner in the Speyside 13-20 category, while the flagship Benromach 10 Years Old was honoured with Gold in the Speyside 12 Years and Under category.

The World Whiskies Awards are part of the prestigious World Drinks Awards scheme, presented by the Drinks Report. Now in the 11th year, the awards aim to select the highest quality in all internationally recognised styles of drinks.

Benromach Distillery Manager, Keith Cruickshank said:

“We’re thrilled with the success of our products in the World Whiskies Awards. We are very proud of our core range of hand crafted single malts providing whisky lovers with the opportunity to discover a lost taste of Speyside.

“This is our anniversary year, celebrating 20 years of distilling since Benromach reopened following its purchase and extensive refurbishment in 1998. The year is off to a great start and we have an exciting calendar of activities and product launches over 2018 to look forward to.”

Gold medal winner Benromach 10 Years Old is created using the finest Scottish barley and pure spring water from the nearby Romach hills. After maturing for ten years, the whisky emerges golden in colour and displays rich fruit, sweet chocolate and delicate spicy aromas. With a rich sherry influence, the mouth-watering palate coats the senses with exotic fruit flavours, toasted malt and a delicate hint of smoke.
