Fettercairn 2008 PST

Fettercairn Single Malt Scotch Whisky 2008, 18 Years Old Refill Hogshead/ 226 bottles 54.2% ABV Artwork by: @KMGYEAH Nose: Fresh, malty, and delightfully fragrant. It opens with sweet grist and a greenhouse burst of potted geraniums, accompanied by an elegant touch of old-school floral perfume. The fruit profile is crisp and defined by sharp pip and stone fruits – think underripe white peaches, nectarines, and crunchy orchard apple cores. Palate: Broad, textured, and significantly more full-bodied than the delicate nose suggests. The orchard fruits turn warm and baked, stepping right into a generous slice of pear pie served alongside a thick, comforting dollop of vanilla custard. A quiet, warming rasp of freshly grated nutmeg grounds the richness across the mid-palate. Finish: A lively snap of ground white pepper cuts through the custardy weight, leaving a mouth-watering, clean finish that lingers on tart stewed pears, astringent quince paste, and sweet malt that keeps you reaching straight back for the glass. Non-chill filtered and natural colour. This spirit may haze at low temperatures and under dilution.
