About this Woodrow's whisky

Woodrow's of Edinburgh showcases an 11 Year Old Ben Nevis single malt in their Warehouse Reserve range, crafted by founder Woody Tan. Distilled on April 4, 2013, and bottled on July 8, 2024, this Highland whisky highlights the robust and characterful spirit for which Ben Nevis is renowned. Initially matured in a refill hogshead, it was given an exceptional finish of over a year in a first-fill Palo Cortado quarter cask (cask 800364), adding layers of nutty, dry sherry complexity. Bottled at cask strength (53.0%) with natural colour and no chill filtration, this is a pure and unadulterated expression of Highland whisky, with just 139 bottles available for Ben Nevis fans.
