Description

A very rare 43-year-old single malt from Ben Nevis, distilled in 1970 and bottled in 2014 by Eiling Lim as her second release. Matured in a single bourbon cask selected by Luc Timmermans, this expression yielded only 48 bottles (though some sources cite 60). It showcases a classic, high-ester old Ben Nevis profile with tropical fruit and idiosyncratic notes.
