Bowie – Ben Nevis Single Malt Scotch Whisky Port Cask – Sample 2023

We have had a number of issues with this cask which has mean we have had to replace it. The good news for Syndicate cask share owners however, is that this is a substantial upgrade from the original 2017 cask to a 2013 cask. The whisky is magical but we have had to bring the bottling date forward to 2024 to maintain the promised 10 year old bottling.  If you own a share in this cask, please check your email for the full story.

Samples and additional info

Once a year, we draw a sample from the cask and post it out to anyone who wants to experience the cask’s maturation progress first hand. This is only done once a year in late Summer. They need to be ordered separately from the cask share itself and only a limited number is available each year. As such, please order one sample of each cask you have a share in only. If you would like to order a second, you can once we are sure that everyone has had a chance to order.
Likewise, if you want to order a sample of a cask which you do not have a share in, you may once we are sure that all those who do have a share have had a chance first.

Please get in touch at hello@unchartedwhisky.com for secondary orders to avoid paying postage twice.

The samples will all be posted out w/c 6th November.
