1st fill Oloroso hogshead finish
This is a 10 year old Ben Nevis from the Highlands, distilled in 2014 and bottled in 2025 by the Scotch Malt Whisky Society as cask 78.87, named 'Like A Back Rub'. It is one of 253 bottles, in a 70cl bottle. After four years in an ex-bourbon hogshead, the whisky was moved into a first fill oloroso hogshead for finishing. The nose is full of barbecue: a charcoal-tinged rib rub of pepper, garlic, brown sugar and chilli, with smoked bacon and cured meat. With water, caramelised honey figs appear.

About Glenbotal

The idea of Glenbotal came to us naturally: as whisky lovers, we were always on the lookout for new experiences in the whisky world. That’s why we created Glenbotal and became our very own first customers. We buy unique and hard to find spirits from ballots and private collections. Then, we share them with a small circle of friends and people who can appreciate a good dram.
