Ben Nevis Single Malts Of Scotland - Parcel #10 Whisky 10 Year Old · 2012 Vintage

Colour

Deep golden amber with warm copper undertones.

Nose

Opulent sherried bouquet, with dark dried fruits—raisin, fig, date—layered with orange zest and caramelized sugar. Notes of vanilla and honeyed malt drift through toasted almond and walnut, while spice threads of cinnamon and clove weave with polished oak. Subtle cocoa nib and a whisper of smoky barley linger, giving a rich, fruit-forward generosity that hints at the five-cask maturation.

Palate

Silky malt leads the way, unfolding dark fruit, fig and almond with a cocoa kiss. Five-cask maturation adds sherried warmth, weaving orange zest, vanilla and subtle spice—cinnamon, clove—through toasted oak. The texture is velvety and generous, balanced by the 48% strength, finishing long with cacao, citrus zest and a refined drying spice.

Finish

Long, luxurious finish: dark cocoa and fig fruit cling to the palate, mingled with orange zest and vanilla-spiced oak. A lingering warmth grows into a refined, syrupy glow that stays with you.
