SMOS – Ben Nevis 22yo – 58.4% – 1997 to 2019

Like chomping on copper bits, this is a robust and satisfying whisky. Not a common bottling, especially in NZ, SMOS does this distillery justice.

Imagine having a plate of pork chops, pork belly and a rare steak and then sticky date pudding for dessert.

There is no mucking around.

This whisky is rich, dark and flavourful – and it does not disappoint.

It may be a tad challenging for the newbie but nothing like baptism by fire I say.
