The Ben Nevis 2014 SV Single Malt Whisky is a fine spirit that has been matured for 8 years in Oloroso Sherry Butts, distilled in 2014 and bottled in 2023. It is a part of the "Ibisco Decanter" collection, known for its high-quality presentation in elegant Ibisco decanters. The whisky is uncolored and unfiltered, with a strength of 46.0% vol. This exquisite whisky hails from the esteemed Ben Nevis Distillery, located in the Highlands and bottled by the reputable Signatory Vintage. The sherry cask has done an excellent job, imparting rich, Mortlach-like flavors of toffee, caramel, and pure chocolate. The whisky offers beautiful notes of chocolate, maple syrup, and dates, followed by deeper hints of tropical fruit. Rich, sherried flavors dominate the palate while remaining smooth with a moderately dense mouthfeel. The distillery's character is somewhat masked by the cask influence, which contributes to intense sherry notes. The whisky offers a rich profile that is quite nippy and hot on the tongue and throat, with a medium-length finish. This Ben Nevis whisky is a testament to the art of whisky-making and the influence of sherry cask maturation. Its complex flavors and smooth finish make it a must-try for whisky enthusiasts and collectors.
