One of four new Fettercairn expressions to be launched in August 2018, the Fettercairn 12 Year Old was intended to embody the distillery’s floral and exotic fruit-driven character. It was matured in American oak ex-Bourbon casks and bottled at 40% ABV.
Nose: Refreshing nectarine, white flowers and milk chocolate emerge initially. Black toffee and subtle roasted coffee provide darker notes underneath,
Palate: Tropical fruit and sticky Jamaican ginger cake add a sweet and spicy depth which a flicker of bitter herbs and vanilla complement.
Finish: Orchard fruits and soft spices linger.

Jamaican Ginger cake in a bottle. Simple but beautiful.

Delighted with the new releases from Fettercairn last year. The 12 year old has become a go to for me. The tropical fruits in there make for a very refreshing highball.

A friend recommended this to me, raving about tropical fruit notes like melon and pineapple. I was doubtful but gave it a go. Absolutely loved it, and pineapple is spot-on as a descriptor. Smooth and light and fruity whisky. I thought it got even better with a small splash of water. I'll definitely be buying this again.

Based on this one taster of their work, I can’t understand why the Whisky Bible seems so harsh about the distillery. An enjoyable Highland malt that matches the taste descriptors listed; I particularly enjoyed the ‘sticky Jamaica ginger cake’ (both as a taste and a pleasingly written observation).
