Description
An undisclosed bottler bottled this Fettercairn, a 12 year old, distilled in 2007, from cask 801485, bottled at 58%. Fettercairn is a fruity Highland malt made on mountain water under the Grampian foothills. It was founded in 1824 by Sir Alexander Ramsay, who turned a corn mill at Nethermill into a distillery.
Drawn off the stills, the cooling rings raising reflux for a fruity spirit, for the tropical, fruity make Fettercairn is known for. Maturation came in ex-Bourbon wood, the oak quiet behind the fruity spirit. In integration lactones (coconut) and vanillin (vanilla) knit with the spirit, the pineapple deepening to a mango. Mountain spring water and the cooling rings give the tropical Fettercairn make. It uses unpeated malt and matures mostly in American oak ex-Bourbon casks. Maturation on site in the Fettercairn dunnage warehouses is slow and steady.
At 58%, undiluted, it is deep and tropical. Tropical fruit, vanilla and a soft spice, with a soft vanilla from the oak. A baked pineapple and a gentle spice lift it. The finish is rounded, tropical and gently spiced. This is Fettercairn's pineapple led Highland style.
