This 10 year old Ben Nevis single malt exudes some beautiful coffee, chocolate and toffeed peat notes, a firm representative of the Western Highland style.
Fresh and quite dry. A supple greenness with soft leafy notes with a rich fruitiness. Hints of orange and Seville marmalade with a light vinous character and nutty undertones.
Gentle dryness. Toffee. Looming omnipresent are solid peat notes with a bitter sweetness.
Silken, toffee and caramel notes balanced with a touch of mochaccino and dark chocolate on the tail.

Tried this at a whisky bar and could not forget it. Ordered me a bottle online. For the age and price this is very very good! Very distinctive taste.
Pour a few nobblers in a snifter glass and let it breathe for 3x its age (30 mins in this case) and you will be rewarded with a tipple that is 3x better than if you imbibed straight away. This Whisky is totally different to any mainstream example in its profile, and as a result needs to be treated differently.
Classy dessert whiskey, not very complex but very pleasant dark flavor profile. Value for the money is just wow!
This was a good bottling before and is now very good indeed and very tasty!! More please.
Great to see they have toned down the E150 and chill filtration a lot in this new revamped version of Ben Nevis. As for the whisky itself it is somewhere between a Springbank 10 and a bourbon cask Benromach. Quite sweet and thick to start then comes a blast of citrus followed by a BIG resinous mineral salty finish, which lasts for a long time turning in a Benylin cough medicine taste. Really impressed as to how much character this whisky has and the way it all works together from start to finish. Amazing value for money providing you like this style of whisky, it isn't a smooth and easy whisky for sure.
