Single Malt
Scotland
1 Jan 1969
The stunning-looking (and stunning-tasting!) Fettercairn 40 Year Old. This was distilled in 1969 and it was aged in Apostoles Palo Cortado sherry wood. It was bottled recently with the newly redesigned packaging, and there are just 463 bottles.
Chocolate, dried apricot and musty orange. Very stylish and tasty! Hints of cocoa, espresso, nutmeg and stewed fruits.
Good body, with a lot of depth. Hints of dark fruits, honey, caraway, chocolate oranges (a la Dalmore!), a little tobacco sweetness, pepper and malt.
Long, oaky and bittersweet with dark chocolate and cedar.
