Fancy winning a dream trip to a tremendous Scotch whisky distillery? Of course you do. Good thing we’ve got a new competition for you to enter…
There’s no shortage of delightful distilleries to visit when in Speyside, but one that should definitely be on your bucket list is Benriach. The Brown-Forman owned distillery is intriguingly home to both peated and unpeated whisky and makes use of a diverse cask profile, maturing its malt in barrels such as ex-bourbon, sherry, Jamaican rum and sweet Marsala. If you’re someone who is interested in the way in which whisky is made, this is a great place to witness the process in action. Just ask the folks who won our last VIP trip competition there…
Fancy heading here? Then get entering!
That’s right, we’re back with another competition and we’re offering you another chance to sample the delights of one of Speyside’s finest. Up for grabs is UK travel to the Benriach distillery for two people including a tour and tasting experience as well a visit to the incredible Speyside Cooperage. There’s also going to be time for another Speyside-based activity (which is TBC and time of year dependant), as you’ll be spending two nights in Scotland at either the Craigellachie hotel or the Highlander Inn (subject to availability) with breakfast included. And there’s also a 3-course dinner for two with 2 drinks one evening at the Castle Hotel. It’s basically the break you all deserve after that year, frankly.
So, how do you put yourself in the running? By purchasing a full-size bottle from the Benriach distillery range* (for the nitty-gritty details, see the competition terms below). That’s all. Easy as pie. And even more delicious. Best of all, right now the Benriach The Twelve and Benriach The Smoky Twelve are available for £5 off. So you get to enter a competition, pick yourself up a bottle of tasty booze and save a few quid in the process.
Best of luck to all of you and be sure to keep an eye out on the MoM blog for when we announce the winner…
