Benromach’s
Visitor Attraction Manager, Susan
Colville, is voted best in the world.
 The
Global Whisky Icons Awards has named
Benromach Distillery's Brand Home
Manager Susan Colville as their Visitor
Attraction Manager of the Year.
Announced in a ceremony in London’s
Honourable Artillery Company last night
28th March 2019, the awards, which are
organised by Whisky Magazine, pay
tribute to the expertise that is poured
into every bottle of whisky made around
the world. Only those working in the
industry can nominate an individual or
brand, with the final winners chosen by
a panel of expert judges.
Susan was recognised for the outstanding
contribution she makes to the many
thousands that visit Benromach
Distillery each year. After winning the
title of Visitor Attraction Manager of
the Year in the Icons of Whisky Scotland
finals in December 2018, Susan went
forward to the global finals, competing
against attraction managers from
regional finals held around the world.
Susan Colville said: "I’m incredibly
proud to have received this award
following an incredible few years of
development for Benromach. Our visitor
numbers have grown significantly year on
year and, following our successful 20th
Anniversary celebrations during 2018, we
are looking forward to continuing to
share Benromach’s fascinating story with
visitors from around the world.
‘"Benromach is one of the few
distilleries left in Scotland where
every whisky is crafted by hand with our
distillers using all their senses to
guide the process. This gives every
visitor to the distillery an incredibly
warm, up-close and personal tour. This
award recognises our whole team’s
endeavours to showcase our distillery
and our national drink on a global
stage.’"
Keith Cruickshank, Benromach’s
Distillery Manager, said: "Susan
thoroughly deserves this award and it is
particularly special as it is chosen by
those working in the industry alongside
a panel of whisky experts. We are
looking forward to another busy summer
season at the visitor centre and are
proud to have Susan’s expertise and
industry knowledge at the helm."
In 2018, Susan was made a Keeper of the
Quaich, joining the international and
select society which recognises those
who have shown outstanding commitment to
the Scotch whisky industry.
