Ben Nevis 27 Years 1996/2024 - Whisky Sponge - Edition No. 58b
The 2024 Ben Nevis 27 Year Old 1996/2024 - Whisky Sponge - Edition No. 58b comes from Scotland/Highlands and is a single malt. The bottle contains 55% alcohol by volume at cask strength.
Whiskey Sponge Edition No. 58b is the long-in-the-making successor to Edition No. 58a. It's the same whisky, a refill cask of Ben Nevis from 1996, only we matured the second half for just over two years in a second-fill sherry butt. Decadent Drinks then bottled the whisky with a slight reduction to 55%. This is a big, rich, oily, waxy, and mechanical Ben Nevis, powerful, West Highland, distillate-driven, with a hint of sherry earthiness.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Mechanical, waxy, oily, with delicate notes of mashed exotic fruits, may types of cooking oils, paraffin and even some salty and leathery touches.
Palate: Very fat and waxy, mechanical and oily once again, lots of dried fruits, herbs, cured meats, medicines and hessian. Also olive oil and more camphor notes. Very big whiskey!
Finish: Long, salty, waxy, oily, some sesame oil, natural tar and a very mineral aftertaste.
