Created in 2011, ARTIST by La Maison du Whisky is LMDW’s flagship series dedicated to remarkable single casks selected for their expressive, terroir-driven character, paired with contemporary artworks chosen to mirror or contrast the whisky’s identity. Over the years, ARTIST has evolved into a true gallery in bottle form: an annual expression of style, ageing, culture and aesthetics. ARTIST #15, the fifteenth edition of this emblematic range and released under the Itinéraires catalogue, is divided into two thematic chapters: Something in the Water, inspired by the magic of Islay and paying tribute to the island’s historic distilleries; and The Dark Side of the Moon, which explores the world of sherry cask maturation from Oloroso to Pedro Ximénez. This Ben Nevis 2015 Aged 10 Years, part of The Dark Side of the Moon chapter, was matured exclusively in a sherry cask. Founded in 1825 and acquired by Nikka in 1989, Ben Nevis is known for its robust, slightly untamed Highland character. Historically unique in Scotland, the distillery once operated both traditional pot stills and a Coffey still, a practice discontinued in the 1980s. This expression channels the distillery’s natural power and the warm, expressive influence central to the ARTIST #15 The Dark Side of the Moon theme. Mineral depth, vibrant fruit, and a generous, open-knit structure come together in a whisky that feels youthful in energy yet deeply rooted in the Ben Nevis style.
