The Benromach distillery in Forres was constructed in 1898 by the Benromach Distillery Company Ltd.; a partnership between Duncan McCallum (owner of the Glen Nevis distillery in Campbelltown) and F. W. Brickman (a spirit merchant from Leith). Benromach distillery was officially opened in the year 1900 but closed again soon after.... More on Malt Madness.
