UM! Whisky Tour #59: Ben Nevis
Sitting at the foot of our mighty highland mountain is the Ben Nevis distillery, a stones throw away from Fort William. Although in great need of renovation by it's Japanese owners, the stills at the distillery still make a wonderful little creamy spirit which is a delight to taste... perhaps it has something to do with the dual still condensers which is unique to my adventures so far... Mention must be made here of the old Nevis distillery which sat up the road from here but sadly now, long gone...
