- Description
- Fettercairn's 18-year-old expression matures in ex-bourbon casks before finishing in Scottish oak, a rare practice that adds native wood character to the Highland distillery's fruity, spice-driven profile. A distinctive cask regime that sets it apart from standard bourbon-matured releases.
