We all love a bit of Balmenach as it gives us a punchier spirit that is like an older cousin of Glen Grant from the Speyside region. Balmenach is the bad influence child next to Glen Grant. Always a very satisfying drink with every dram. A dram full of interesting and quite complex flavours. This is more old and dignified of a dram with a designer bourbon cask taste. Just beyond delicious.

About Balmenach

Situated in the district of Cromdale on the banks of the River Spey the distillery stands in beneath the nearby hill of Tom Lethendry where the Jacobites were defeated in the Battle of Cromdale in 1690.

Balmenach Distillery is one of the earliest distilleries sanctioned as a result of the Excise Act 1823. In 1897 the distillery was purchased by Glenlivet and was served by its own railway branch off the Strathspey Railway until 1969. The distillery closed in 1941 and re-opened in 1947, following expansion of its facilities.

The Distillery is owned by Inver House Distillers Limited, a privately owned distiller whose other distilleries include: Speyburn-Glenlivet Distillery; Knockdhu Distillery; Balblair Distillery; and, Old Pulteney Distillery.
