Fettercairn 14 Year Old Tasting Notes

Nose: Rich and thick toffee climbs out of the glass. This is followed by dark chocolate aromas and a more delicate toasted hazelnut. A soft vanilla in a leather jacket skulks about in the back.

Palate: Dates, toffee and nuttiness with an initial spice. Bitter dark chocolate follows. Dried figs emerge alongside glace ginger.

Finish: Long and unctuous. Butterscotch coats the mouth mingling with chocolate well after the spirit is gone. Delicate spices emerge as the sweetness eventually fades. Hints of nutmeg, cinnamon and new(ish) leather.

About Brown Eyed Girl

This sumptuous and decadent whisky from Fettercairn has been twice matured. First, in an ex-bourbon hogshead. Then, a generous finishing period soaking in first fill Pedro Ximenez sherry cask. This has imparted a deep, rich amber brown colour. The whisky is smooth, rich and elegant with the flavour of the liquid beautifully delivering what the colour promises. Uncharted Whisky Co have named this release Brown Eyed Girl, after these elegant characteristics.
