Two ten year old, heavily sherried drams from Ben Nevis, will it be Cadenheads or Adelphi that win this battle?

We're looking at a polarising distillery for us, one we enjoy older expressions from but struggle with the younger counterparts. We've got a release from the famed 1996 vintage alongside a 10 year old from Ben Nevis.

We've got two (what look like) sherry bombs from Adelphi, let's get stuck in...

We look at two sherry casks from Infrequent Flyers 10th release, from the ever popular Ben Nevis and Allt-A-Bhainne distilleries.

We enjoy when Independent bottlers try new things, and a Ben Nevis in an ex-rye cask is new to us. We're comparing this with a slightly more common PX finish... which will we prefer?

It's rare to get the chance to compare two bottlings from the same distillery with the same age and from the same independent bottler, so find out whether we preferred the white port or palo cortado maturation.
