A Swede taste of Scotland’s national drink
Bar manager Susan Stenström, whisky magazine editor Emma Andersson and restaurateur Helena Hugo will learn about milling, mashing and distilling from Gordon & MacPhail, the Scotch bottler that owns the site.
The Swedes will be christened as “honorary stillmen” at the end of their training.

Hide AdMichael Urquhart, joint managing director of Gordon & MacPhail, said: “Sweden has a huge whisky following and is becoming an increasingly popular market for Benromach. We hope the ladies will share their experiences of their scholarship and our single malt whisky.”
Each of the Swedish women is already recognised as an expert in Scotland’s national drink.
Stenström and Hugo have both opened their own venues in Sweden to serve Scotch, while Andersson’s publication, Allt Om Whisky, is “one of the world’s best whisky magazines”.
