Color: pale straw
The nose is a wet dream for Nevis fans, from the rest I get the racial wood notes even with an hour of breathing out, all in all not what I expect from Ben Nevis, 22 years and 200 € +. 87 points (For the nose and because the rest clearly tastes like Nevis.)-
First of all tropical tutti, especially papaya, pineapple, but the nose is stuck deeper into the glass is not, then comes a barrage of dry wood and alcohol. With water: old and waxy, the fruits are mostly gone, luckily including alcohol. Freshly cut grass, yeast dough, rapeseed. Acidic, musty undergrowth. Tobacco and old sweat.
-
Is not mine without water, so then ... With water: he still has barrel flavor, well with the papaya from the nose, maracuja (I had not yet in Ben Nevis in the crowd), marijuana. Tobacco.
-
Medium long, halfway between wax and fruit. Slightly dry.

Really great Ben Nevis. Can tolerate some water. High aroma density, but still nice and tasty. Like it a lot.-
beautiful, fragrant floral malt with oranges, cherries, ripe bananas, a few exotic fruits such as peach and melon are there, as well as many spices such as nutmeg, cinnamon, pepper. Beautiful interaction between a honey sweetness, all the fruits and a slightly spicy ginger. He can do something.
-
slightly prickly, slightly gingery, some white pepper, in the mouth a little creamy, nuts come through accompanied by sweet fruity aromas.
The addition of a few drops of water makes it even more accessible and softer.
The aromas of the nose are getting better now. Great Ben Nevis! -
medium length, dry and slightly bitter, slightly sweetish, but fades quickly

Neat Ben Nevis. However, something disturbs me this flowery-soapy. Less on the nose than on the palate.-
Oranges, sweet honey, raisins, pine needles, nutmeg, mint, lemongrass, pepper, floral, lavender, furniture polish, cinnamon, ginger, sour, fermented grapes
-
Sparkling, light spicy, white pepper, sweet mint tea, sugared plums, tannins, creamy, nutty, soap, teen, rose petals, lemon balm
-
long, dry and bitter, but not unpleasant. Woody and slightly sweet, flower tea
