It is in his adventurous spirit that BenRiach boldly approaches the art of distillation and cask maturation. We call it BenRiach Maltology®As progressive Speyside whisky distillers, BenRiach crafts unpeated, peated and triple distilled malt whisky and holdssome of the most experimental casks in Speyside. Small wonder the distillery team have nicknamed the distillery‘The Lab'.We are one of just two remaining distilleries in Speyside to distill whisky using malted barley from its own onsite floormaltings, a time honoured method that is celebrated for one month each year.Welcome to BenRiach Maltology.Rachel Barrie: Master BlenderRachel Barrie started her 26 year career in whisky after graduating with a first class honours in chemistry from Edinburgh University. Her first experience of malt whisky began in the Garioch district in Aberdeenshire, where she was born and brought up to appreciate the nuances of the locally distilled malt whisky.

The first episode of 2019 and it is almost as long as Kyle’s dream time for a marathon! Tom and Kyle are podcasting at the TRS HQ discussing our festive delights and firming up the 2019 running goals. We give you the low down at the Great Stirling Cross Country event and chat about some fast times during the festive season. Kyle fails miserably on name pronunciations and chats all things Run Garioch with Celebrity PT and Ultra Runner Stuart Amory, Run Garioch Race Director Graham Morrison and Race Support Executive/Marathoner Christine Appel.
This month, our tasting panel is sacrificing Virgins at the annual PhilCon science fiction convention in Philadelphia...Virgin Oaks, that is. Bill Ricker, Mark Richards, Wrenn Simms, and Dennis McCunney tasted the Deanston Virgin Oak, the Glen Garioch Virgin Oak, and Glenmorangie's Ealanta, which was matured for 19 years in Virgin Oak casks.
Our panel gathered via Skype this month to taste a series of single malts. Evan Chapman, Edwin Vargas, Jennifer Chung, and Steve Gillette tasted the Glen Garioch 12, the Springbank 21, and Highland Park's 25-year-old.
They live in the heart of the Shire, they're the team behind TOWIG (The Only Way Is Garioch), but filmmakers Alstair Stewart and Andrew Forbes are saving hard to buy the gear that will take their projects to the next level. That's in today's IADF podcast. If you have a great script then that's half the battle," says filmmaker Alistair Stewart, from Inverurie, who runs Reel Moon Productions with friend Andrew Forbes. The pair are working and saving to make money to buy equipment that will help them improve the production quality of their films.They've bought the Canon EOS 550D, one of the Canon DSLRs that are proving so popular among indie filmmakers around the world. That improves their video footage.Next on their shopping list is an audio recorder. Anyone who uses a DSLR knows that you have to record sound on a separate device to get the best audio results.Along with that there are the cables and boom pole to support the mic.And then there's the tripod."When you are doing a [tripod] pan you can hear a nice..creakkkkkkk!" laughs Alistair, making a mental note to add a tripod to their shopping list.However most pressing for the two filmmakers is to find someone with skills to operate and work behind the camera while Alistair's in front.They need volunteer(s) to help with all sorts of production work. You'll get a sandwich for your time (they reassured me!).They're jumping through hoops to make their productions work as best they can: TOWIG, Dream Girl and Tagged.Wouldn't it be great if a big-hearted local business offered a couple of hundred quid to pay for an audio recorder or a tripod to help Alistair and Andrew out.So, lads, start knocking on doors and see what help is out there.'If you don't ask, you don't get,' my ex-wife used to say to me.Find Reel Moon Productions here:FacebookYou Tube
Dream Girl is a production written and directed by Andrew Forbes and Alistair Stewart: the two young filmmakers behind Reel Moon Productions - and the same pair behind The Only Way is Garioch (see previous post). They gave this interview for the IADF podcast at March's Aberdeen Actors and Directors networking evening in the Belmont Cinema, Aberdeen. They've got plenty of enthusiasm, but have they got the staying power to get through pre-, production and post-, without going bananas? I'll catch up with them thorughout the year and check on their sanity. Good luck to you both. Find out more about their productions on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/reelmoonproductions And, of course, the networking evening is all thanks to Kim Templeton and Jamie Rodden of Aberdeen Launch PAD: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Aberdeen-Launch-PAD/376315115712311 Read more about Andrew and Alistair on the IADF webpage: http://www.iamdofilmmaker.co.uk
In the last episode, I mentioned the Balcones Brimstone blue corn whiskey from Balcones Distillery in Waco, Texas...and how the corn was smoked over Texas scrub oak. Turns out I was wrong, and there's an even more interesting story behind this whiskey and the distillery. In the news, Jack Daniel's neighbors want to tax the distillery's whiskey barrels, Ireland could have a fourth distillery two years from now, new whiskies from Glen Garioch and The Macallan, and tasting notes for craft whiskies from Arkansas and Washington.
For the first time, Diageo is releasing single cask bottlings from all 27 of its malt distilleries in Scotland. Diageo's master of malt, Dr. Nick Morgan, explains how the Manager's Choice malts were selected, and also previews this year's Distiller's Edition series of single malts. Graeme Wallace will preview the first Whisky Show in London coming up in November, and we'll listen in on the first (ri)1 Iron Bartender Competition held in New York this past week. In the news, new single malts from Ardbeg, Bowmore, Edradour, and Glen Garioch, and I taste a 30-year-old Lagavulin!
