Ben Nevis 25 Year Old 1999 Cadenhead's Authentic Collection
Bottle Information
Tasting Notes
Distilled at the foot of Britain’s highest peak and laid down in a solitary bourbon hogshead, this whisky matured for a full quarter-century before Cadenhead’s released it—unchill-filtered, natural colour, and at natural cask strength—in June 2025. Only 168 individually numbered bottles emerged, revealing Ben Nevis’s muscular malt gently mellowed into waves of vanilla-cream, tropical fruit and subtle coastal smoke.
