- Description
- Fettercairn's 17-year-old 1995 release from the Scottish Highlands showcases the distillery's characteristic style—typically fruity and gently spiced—matured over nearly two decades in wood. The extended aging period allows vanilla and oak sweetness to integrate with the spirit's natural orchard fruit and subtle spice character. Highland distillery tradition suggests a full-bodied dram with warming oak presence and a clean, evolving finish. This whisky suits those seeking a mature, well-aged Highland expression with proven ageing potential.
