Very sherried, I suspect a 1st fill perhaps? This one is actually a little too intense at cask strength but with water this releases a lot of dark fruits and relaxes the tannins on the palate. 85/100
Ben Nevis 15 Years Old 1997 (Pearls Of Scotland)
Ben Nevis 22 Years Old Batch 7
Another super Ben Nevis bottling by Boutique-Y, not too much Nevis Funk in here but just enough to confirm its origin. Plenty of refill ex-bourbon notes though and generous fruits too. 87/100
Ben Nevis 21 Years Old 1990 Single Cask
Ben Nevis 21 Years Old 1990 Ruby Port Cask Finish Whisky Review: An impressive colour and palate to match. Quite woody and challenging initially, needs to breathe or a drop of water to relax it a little. An unforgettable single cask expression from Ben Nevis. 85/100
Ben Nevis 21 Years Old Batch 8
Ben Nevis 21 Years Old Batch 8 Whisky Review: Odd, fruity and metallic, earthy, nothing in any one direction but clearly unbalanced, but I still quite like it. 85/100
Ben Nevis 23 Years Old Batch 10
Ben Nevis 23 Years Old Batch 10 Whisky Review: A simply wonderful Ben Nevis expression! I found this one much grubbier and sweaty and full of Ben Nevis’s industrial funk than the Amber Light bottling. 89/100
