Ben Nevis 1973 (Thompson Bros)
Wait, another 52 year-old after Angus' Glen Garioch? That's right. This Ben Nevis 1973 was bottled some time ago by the guys at Dornoch Castle.I met the Thompson Brothers at the Limburg Whisky Fair a couple of weeks ago. Lovely chaps. First they brought me down to earth with a random blind tasting of their Mystery Malt series (if you hadn't heard about the concept yet - it's very interesting). It really plays tricks on your mind. After that, this Ben Nevis left a deep impression, even though it was the last stand of the day and I had already tried some stunning things.
