- Description
- Fettercairn's Highland distillery character shines through in this single bourbon barrel expression, distilled in 2000 and matured for 18 years before bottling at cask strength in 2019. The extended maturation in ex-bourbon wood has developed vanilla, gentle stone fruit, and a hint of heather-honey character, with good oak integration. Bottled at 51.9% ABV from a single cask, the texture is full and warming with a long, drying finish. A robust Highland malt suited to those who appreciate cask strength bottlings with straightforward, unfussy character.
