Ben Nevis 24 Year Old 1996 First Editions

Ben Nevis 24 Year Old 1996 First Editions is a rare and highly collectible Highland single malt Scotch whisky, bottled by Hunter Laing & Co. for their First Editions series. Distilled in 1996 and matured for 24 years in a single refill butt (#18789), this exceptional expression was bottled in 2021, with just 258 bottles released.

Produced at Ben Nevis Distillery, this long-aged single cask showcases the distillery’s distinctive and characterful style—often rich, slightly waxy, and full of depth. Refill cask maturation allows the spirit to take centre stage, developing layers of fruit, malt, spice, and subtle oak over extended ageing.
