Notes & Reviews
MaltMartin
posted 24 Dec. 2012
MaltMartin gave this whisky 88 points
Color
 
Yellow gold
Nose
Flowery, delicate sweetness, beeswax, marzipan, honey and vanilla. A little bit perfume as well.
Taste
Oaky with a sharp edge. Liquorice and some spice later on.
Finish
Medium long, bitterness.
Comments
Nose is very nice and complex, but taste is too woody and spicy for me. Probably the last Ben Wyvis I'll able to taste in my life....

The Ben Wyvis distillery was closed in 1976, just eleven years after it had opened as part of Whyte & Mackay`s Invergordon complex. Only a handful of bottlings have ever been released, of which this is perhaps the most interesting. Having bottled what was believed to be the last casks of Ben Wyvis in 1999 under the name `The Final Resurrection`, Whyte & Mackay were somewhat taken aback to discover that one more cask did in fact exist in their warehouses. Unfortunately it belonged to someone else, but the twist came when it was discovered that the owner had defaulted on their storage fees. The cask was therefore repossessed and this is the bottling that resulted - probably the very last bottling from one of the shortest-lived distilleries in Scotland. A true collector`s item.
