2012 Ben Nevis, Berry Bros. & Rudd Exclusive, Mossburn, Cask Ref. 401, Highland, Single Malt Scotch Whisky (57.8%)
- Scotch Whisky
Description
It is always a distinct pleasure to work in collaboration with other respected whisky makers to choose special casks. This confluence of immaculately distilled Ben Nevis has slept under the stewardship of our friends at Mossburn and has now been bottled, at what we feel is its apogee. The nose is replete with tea and sponge cake, served on an antique wooden tray, whilst the palate leans towards the more savoury, malty aspects of traditional Highland whiskies. A delightful icing sugar note gives the finish a touch of sweetness. One to simply drink and enjoy.

About this spirit
Barley
Barley is a key ingredient in the production of some of the world's most renowned spirits, particularly whiskey and Scotch whisky. Malted barley is used as the primary grain in many single malt and blended Scotch whiskies, where it contributes a distinct malty, nutty, and sometimes smoky flavour profile. In addition to Scotch, barley is also a staple in the production of Irish whiskey, where it often lends a smoother, creamier taste. The versatility of barley as a grain makes it a favorite for creating complex and deeply nuanced spirits cherished by enthusiasts worldwide.
