Detailed Description
Long-aged, elegant and very carefully selected, this single cask release from Fettercairn, launched in 2018 to celebrate the revitalisation of the distillery’s on-going whisky range, is an impressive whisky. Matured for 50 years in an American white oak ex-bourbon cask and then finished for a few years in a tawny port pipe, this combines elegant old whisky with a fresh kick of berry fruit, all without becoming unbalanced.
