FETTERCAIRN AGED 19 YEARS – Distilled 1997
Set in the foothills of the Cairngorm Mountains, Fettercairn is a traditional distillery producing a full-bodied single malt. The picturesque distillery is one of the few active stills in the eastern Highlands of Scotland. We have guided this classic malt through a series of bourbon barrels.
THE ART OF MATURATION
After seventeen years maturing in a refill American oak cask, this spirit was selected by Murray McDavid’s Whisky Creations Team for finishing in a fresh bourbon cask.
The highly active American oak has given the Fettercairn spirit sweet vanilla and spicy notes.
This showcases the unique character of the Fettercairn spirit and the quality of the casks available at Murray McDavid’s traditional Victorian dunnage warehouse at the Coleburn Distillery in Speyside.
