Tasting Notes
Unleash your senses and brace yourself for an extraordinary journey with the Ben Nevis 5 Year Old 2019 - 100 Proof Edition #17. This heavily peated single malt whisky is a true masterpiece, crafted with meticulous attention to detail. Distilled in 2019 and matured for five years in refill oloroso sherry butts, it boasts a robust 57.1% ABV, adding depth and complexity to its character. The nose is an intriguing blend of balanced peat smoke, zesty citrus, honeyed fruit, charred pineapple, and earthy, herbaceous malt notes. On the palate, meaty smoke intertwines harmoniously with candied nuts, stewed red fruits, biscuity malt, and a touch of honey, creating a symphony of flavors that dances on your tongue. The finish is a lingering symphony, with preserved lemons, flinty minerality, warming pepper, cocoa, and a sweet, smoky farewell that lingers pleasantly. This independent bottling from Signatory is a true gem for whisky enthusiasts seeking a bold and unforgettable experience.
