Hi bomber, Ben Wyvis malt whisky is extremely rare, the Ben Wyvis distillery opened as part of Whyte & Mackay's Invergordon complex in 1965 and closed in 1977 so it wasnt producing whisky for long.
Do you know if it is a distillery bottling or independent bottling you have? What exactly does it say on the label. I am guessing it is a 27 year old distilled in 1972 as there a few of these around. Also what % ABV is it. |
