Ben Nevis First Fill Ruby Port Butt - Best Dram 12 Years 2012/2025

This Ben Nevis Single Malt Whisky is part of the Best Dram series from Michel Reick, the Whisky Ambassador at Kirsch Import. As an independent bottler, he selects his best drams personally and locally in Scotland's whisky regions and bottles them neither chill-filtered nor coloured as single casks at natural cask strength. The 12-year-old Ben Nevis was distilled at the Highland distillery in 2012 and matured in a first-fill ruby port butts before being bottled as a small batch at 57.8% vol. in 2025. The selected single cask is a very old tawny port butt in which Ruby Port was transported for bottling. Reick is also known for his other series Scotch Universe, The Whisky Druid, The Old Friend series and is a true great in the whisky industry.
