Cadenhead's Ben Nevis 13 Years Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a Highland single malt from Scotland's Ben Nevis Distillery, bottled at natural strength of 46% ABV after maturing for thirteen years in a marriage of oloroso sherry hogsheads and bourbon barrels.\n\nFrom the shadow of Scotland's highest peak, Ben Nevis Distillery has been crafting Highland single malts since 1825, drawing pure mountain water from the Allt a'Mhuilinn. Cadenhead's, established in 1842 as Scotland's oldest independent bottler, selects only the finest casks for their Original Collection, presenting this Highland expression without chill filtration or added coloring to preserve the whisky's authentic character.\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Highland heather honey, dried orange peel, warm baking spices, toasted almonds, gentle peat smoke\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Orchard fruits, dark chocolate, cinnamon bark, sherried sultanas, creamy vanilla from bourbon wood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium to long with lingering spice, dried fruit sweetness, subtle mountain herbs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpirit Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSingle Malt Scotch Whisky\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eABV\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e46% (92 proof)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVolume\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e700ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAge Statement\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e13 Years\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDistillery\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBen Nevis Distillery\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRegion\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHighlands, Scotland\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBarrel Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOloroso Sherry \u0026amp; Bourbon Hogsheads\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBottler\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCadenhead's Original Collection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFiltration\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNon-chill filtered\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003ePerfect For\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHighland Evening Contemplation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Neat sipping while watching the gloaming settle over Scottish hills\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhisky Society Tastings:\u003c\/strong\u003e Showcasing the marriage of sherry and bourbon cask influences\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBurns Night Celebrations:\u003c\/strong\u003e Honoring Scottish heritage with authentic Highland character\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAutumn Fireside Sessions:\u003c\/strong\u003e The perfect companion for crisp nights and good conversation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat does Cadenhead's Ben Nevis 13 Year taste like?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Highland single malt offers a complex profile balancing the rich, nutty sweetness from oloroso sherry casks with vanilla and spice from bourbon barrels.
