Ben Nevis 2012/2025 - 12 yo - 1st Fill Ruby Port Butt #1982 (Best Dram)

Special features: This whisky comes from the renowned Ben Nevis, one of Scotland's oldest distilleries. Twelve years of maturation in first-fill Ruby Port Butt lends it a fascinating complexity. Michel Reick, also known as the Whisky Druid, carefully selected this bottling, which is fermented without chill filtration or coloring, thus preserving the purity and intensity of the flavor.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: Fruity notes of ripe berries, combined with a hint of chocolate ice cream and fine peat smoke.
• Palate: A harmonious interplay of shortcrust pastry and surprisingly light fruity accents that underline the character of the Ruby Port.
• Finish: Long and complex, with lasting impressions of fruity sweetness and a gentle smokiness.

Distillery/Bottler: Founded in 1825, the Ben Nevis Distillery is known for its powerful and complex whiskies. Michel Reick, who curates the "Best Dram" bottlings, brings his extensive experience and passion for whisky to every bottle. His selection of special casks from Scotland consistently delivers exceptional tasting experiences.
