- Description
- Distilled at Fettercairn in April 1995 and matured for 16 years in bourbon barrels 405 and 406, this Highland single malt presents the distillery's characteristic spice-forward character at cask strength. Expect warm baking spices, vanilla oak, and subtle fruity notes from the ex-bourbon cask influence. The palate is robust and well-integrated, with a drying finish that lingers with pepper and cereal notes. A limited release of 368 bottles, suited to those seeking Highland character without excessive refinement.
