Ben Nevis
Tasting Notes
Ben Nevis 11 Year Old 2011 is a delightful single malt that deliciously unravels layer upon layer of flavor. On the nose, it greets you with a zesty burst of marmalade, swirled with notes of runny caramel and a honeyed barley sweetness. As you take a sip, a delightful candied citrus and floral honey dance on your palate, accompanied by a subtle touch of ginger and a biscuity malt undertone. The finish is soft and lingering, with oaken spices making a gentle entrance, followed by honeyed sultanas, runny toffee, and a refreshing hint of pithy orange peel. This splendid whisky from Ben Nevis was distilled in 2011 and matured for 11 years in a single sherry butt, resulting in a total of 880 bottles being drawn from the cask in 2023, making it a part of the independent Hepburn's Choice collection.
