In mid-2018, the Fettercairn distillery relaunched its core range of single malt Scotch whisky, which included this fantastic 40 year old expression (as well as a 12 year old, a 28 year old and a 50 year old). When tasting it at the launch event (read more about that over on the blog), our Kristy particularly enjoyed "...the rich nutmeg spice, orange oil, bitter dark chocolate and leathery notes on the nose and palate."
Honey, molasses, and ginger at first, overtaken by toffee apple, thick treacle, and sherry.
Liquorice and balsamic, balanced with citrus and raisin. Hints of toffee, honey, and Demerara sugar.
A glorious finish of soft spice and tropical fruits.
Wow what a Christmas present
A 40year old Fettercairn,would be tremendous not just because of age,it would be heaven to sit back relaxing with A glass of 40 year old Fettercairn. Simply Devine
