BEN NEVIS 22 ans 1996 The Little Big Book Elixir Distillers

After being renovated in 1984 and closed in 1986, Ben Nevis was bought by the Japanese group Nikka in 1989. Today, a small part of its production (2.5%) is used for a very peaty single malt named McDonald’s Traditional in tribute to the Long distillery’s founder, John McDonald. For some years now, Ben Nevis’ authentic and uncompromising style has inspired growing passion from enthusiasts around the world. Superbly fruity, herbaceous and malty, this incredibly natural bottling is a reminder that simplicity is a virtue capable of highlighting an underlying complexity.
