Fettercairn Warehouse 2 Batch #3
The third release in The Collection, Warehouse 2 Batch No.003 has been crafted using a handpicked selection of Ex-Bourbon Barrels, Rum Barrels and French Red Wine Barriques; filled with spirit that flowed from the Fettercairn stills in 2015 and has since been maturing in Fettercairn Warehouse 2, and bottled in 2022.
It is a rare and remarkable single malt shaped by its maturation in its own unique dunnage environment and then crafted through the expert combination of three different cask types to reveal a whisky of distinctive character – one displaying the wonderful Fettercairn house-style that is abundant with tropical flavours and soft spice.
