Description
Bottled by Dràm Mòr in 2021 as a 8 year old single cask release drawn from cask 2084 of 2012 vintage Ben Nevis with 102 bottles distributed to the Singapore market at cask strength of 53%. Dràm Mòr is a small Scottish independent bottler founded in 2019 by Kenny and Viktorija MacDonald, based in Loch Lomond.
Distilled at Ben Nevis distillery in Fort William at the foot of the highest mountain in the British Isles, founded in 1825 by John "Long John" McDonald and owned by Nikka Whisky Distilling under Asahi Group since 1989. The wash uses unpeated malted barley with soft Allt a'Mhuilinn burn water from springs on the slopes of Ben Nevis, fermented for around 48 hours with brewer's pressed yeast in eight washbacks of stainless steel and Oregon pine. Ben Nevis runs two wash and two spirit stills, the wash stills tubular with plain deep bases, the spirit stills cone shaped with deep bases, all steam heated through shell and tube condensers. The spirit was filled into a single Port pipe cask for 8 years of on site maturation.
Early stage maturation showed Port pipe chemistry. Port aging in pipes brings residual tannins from Portuguese varieties like Touriga Nacional and Tinta Roriz, alongside anthocyanin pigments and oxidative aldehydes from extended cask seasoning. The combination delivers figs, plum, cocoa, and leather. Integrated with Ben Nevis's heavy, oily Western Highland character at 53%.
