A richly structured Highland single malt combining long bourbon maturation with fresh Pedro Ximénez influence.
The nose shows waxy orchard fruits, pineapple and baked apple, layered with emerging raisins, fig syrup and dark toffee from the fresh PX hogshead. Subtle vanilla, toasted coconut and gentle oak spice provide balance.
On the palate, the spirit retains classic Ben Nevis weight and texture — oily, mouth-coating and fruit-forward — now developing deeper notes of black cherry compote, treacle, dark chocolate and roasted nuts. The PX sweetness enhances rather than dominates, sitting over a core of tropical fruit and mineral waxiness.
The finish is long and warming with dried fruits, espresso, cinnamon spice and polished oak, underpinned by the distillery’s signature waxy character.
Established in 1825 by "Long John" MacDonald, Ben Nevis Distillery is a historic Highland landmark situated at the foot of Britain's highest peak. We are one of the few remaining distilleries to use traditional brewer's yeast, resulting in a robust, full-bodied spirit that defines our signature 10-year-old malt. Now part of the Nikka Whisky family, we blend centuries of Scottish heritage with global craft excellence. From our immersive "Legend of the Dew" visitor experience to our world-class coastal whiskies, we invite you to taste the authentic spirit of Fort William.
Founded in 1825 at the foot of Scotland’s highest mountain, Ben Nevis Distillery is celebrated for producing a robust, character-driven spirit that matures exceptionally well over time. Highly prized by independent bottlers and collectors, Ben Nevis has developed a cult reputation for whiskies of depth, complexity and individuality. Mature stocks are increasingly scarce, and first-fill bourbon casks from strong vintages are particularly sought after.
