Special Features:

This peated Traditional distillery bottling was initially released as a limited edition in 2011 and was later reintroduced. It is bottled at 46%, without chill filtration or added colouring.

The whisky combines salty sea air and woodsmoke with honey and wildflowers. On the palate, crème caramel and ginger cake complement its smoky profile.

Tasting Notes:

  • Nose: Salty sea air and woodsmoke open the nose, followed by honey and wildflowers.
  • Palate: The palate begins with delicate smoke before crème caramel and ginger cake emerge.
  • Finish: Peat smoke fades slowly, accompanied by vanilla and buttery caramel.

Distillery/Bottler:

Ben Nevis Distillery stands at the foot of Ben Nevis near Fort William. John MacDonald, known as Long John, founded it in 1825. Its water flows from Coire Leis and Coire na Ciste to the distillery via the Allt a’ Mhuilinn.

Nikka Whisky Distilling Co., Ltd. acquired the distillery in 1989. Following the installation of a new mash tun, boiler and washbacks, Ben Nevis resumed production in 1990. The distillery releases Traditional as one of its own bottlings.
