Ben Nevis Glencoe Whisky Miniature 8 Year Old

Colour

Deep burnished amber with coppery sheen and a hint of mahogany.

Nose

Powerful, warming aroma with sherried fruit—dark plum and raisin—woven with fig, orange zest, and a touch of toasted almond. Rich oak, vanilla, and cocoa nibs frame a spicy edge of white pepper and ginger. The elevated ABV lends a poised, lingering warmth that hints at depth and a luxurious, dessert-like profile.

Palate

Opulent and full-bodied at 58%, this Ben Nevis presents immediate warmth and depth. Dark chocolate and espresso mingle with dried fruits—raisin, fig and a touch of cherry—alongside toffee, vanilla and oak. Sherry-influenced spice blooms: cinnamon, clove and nutmeg. The texture is creamy yet chewy, finishing long with cacao, leather, orange zest and a final kiss of licorice.

Finish

Long and warm, the finish coats the palate with dark-fruit depth and sherry sweetness. Cocoa nibs and dried plum mingle with a whisper of raisin, while cinnamon and clove spice linger beside toasted oak. A velvet, espresso-kissed warmth slowly fades into a refined, lingering glow.
