Fettercairn 40 Year Old Description
Matured in American white oak ex-bourbon barrels and finished in Apostoles sherry casks, this Highland single malt was distilled on 23rd December 1977. Bottled aged 40 years old at a strength of 48.9% abv, only 818 bottles have been produced.
The nose has sweet honey, treacle and molasses with a touch of ginger and rich sherry. The palate brings aspects of liquorice and citrus, balanced with raisins, toffee and Demerara sugar, before a soft spice in the fruity finish.
Fettercairn 40 Year Old is a four-decade Scotch crafted for serious collectors who value rarity, maturity, and long-term appreciation. After 40 years in oak, the whisky develops exceptional depth while preserving the distillery’s core character. Bottles of this age are released in extremely limited allocations, positioning them as both celebratory pours and portfolio-grade acquisitions.
On the nose, expect layered dried fruits, polished oak, subtle spice, and mature sweetness. The palate unfolds with structured elegance — caramelized sugars, aged wood, leather nuance, and refined spice leading into a long, warming finish marked by integrated oak and lingering complexity. Four decades of maturation deliver balance without overwhelming the original spirit profile.
