Ben Nevis 2012 Premier Cru Pauillac Red Wine Barrique - Benchmark (Murray McDavid) Single Malt Scotch Whisky | 700ML

Murray McDavid's trademark? An outstanding wooden treasure. For the second time, exclusive Single Casks Exclusive for Germany were bottled from the independent bottler's select inventory of barrels. This single barrel bottling comes from the Benchmark series, the heart of Murray McDavid. With the Ben Nevis 2012, Murray McDavid created a rare, outstanding example of the highly valued single malt. Sweet malt, notes of cinnamon rolls, floral hints and baking spices characterize the single barrel bottling. To achieve this, it was refined for five years in a red wine barrique from the legendary Château Lafite winery in Bordeaux.
