Distribution of ratings for this:
Not subtle or especially complex but very enjoyable. A real bruiser of a malt with no punches pulled.
Nose: Smoked malt, barley, cereals and peat. Taste: Rich malty flavours with smoke balanced by sherry sweetness. Very robust whisky full bodied.
Finish: Long dryer finish in which the smoke and sherry notes linger underpinned by peat
Find where to buy Ben Nevis whisky
That has to be the highest I've seen anyone score this. Ben Nevis is a bit of a Marmite amongst Whisky - you either love it or hate it. I like thick, in-your-face whisky with an edge, so I may find the same appreciation of it as you do.
I've enjoyed most of the older independently bottled Ben Nevis expressions, but haven't tried this OB yet - your review makes me want to though.
