History:
Founded in 1898 as the whisky market suddenly moved into recession, Benriach was forced to close in 1900 and did not reopen until 1965 when it was rebuilt by Glenlivet Distillers Ltd.  The distillery is located next door to Longmorn, south of Elgin.  It is a key malt for the blend Chivas Regal. It was sold a few years ago and is now independently owned.
