Founded in 1825 and becoming the property of the Japanese group Nikka in 1989, Ben Nevis is one of the few bicentenary distilleries in Scotland. Located on the mainland coast of the west of Scotland, in the shadow of the highest mountain in Great Britain from which it takes its name, Ben Nevis is known for its aging in old sherry barrels. In recent years, the Ben Nevis distillery seemed somewhat asleep, as if fallen into a sweet torpor, but it had not said its last word. It was in 2012 that the awakening occurred with the arrival of the intensely peaty Ben Nevis Traditional. The distillery still hides beauties that are waiting to awaken…

This single malt was distilled at Ben Nevis distillery in 2015 and aged for more than six years in a single barrel, which yielded a total of 256 bottles. Immensely fruity and refreshing – a testament
to sprightly whisky bottled at optimal age.
