Description

A rare 49-year-old release from Ben Nevis, distilled in March 1966 and bottled in April 2015 by independent bottler Whiskybroker. Due to the cask strength dropping naturally below 40% ABV to 29.5% over nearly five decades of maturation in six hogsheads, it was officially bottled under the name 'Spirit of the Highlands'.
