The Octave 13 Year Old Ben Nevis 2012 Single Cask Single Malt Scotch Whisky Cask #3645803

From the Highlands of Scotland, The Octave 13 Year Old Ben Nevis 2012 Single Cask Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a rare release distilled at the historic Ben Nevis Distillery and bottled in 2024 after 13 years of maturation. Crafted from malted barley and aged in oak before spending nine months in a small octave cask with an Oloroso sherry finish, this limited single cask expression is bottled at 51.3% ABV, capturing the bold character of Highland Scotch.

Rich aromas open with dried fruits, toasted oak, and warm spice. The palate unfolds with layers of dark caramel, sherry sweetness, roasted nuts, and hints of cocoa, leading to a long, warming finish. Best enjoyed neat or with a few drops of water to reveal its depth and complexity.
