Description

Fettercairn is for the whisky adventurer! We always find a bizarre mixtures of flavors in Fettercairn but it all works so well, especially in this cask. There’s a roasted chestnut note in here that’s unmistakable and glorious. If you’ve ever guessed Fettercairn this is the bottle to show you what their distillate can do.
