Fettercairn 12 Year Old 2008 Single Cask SMWS 94.13 Follow The Furry Cheesemonger Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky (2020) 70cl

A typically unusual and charismatic opening for this notorious make. An initial fusion of onion seed bagels and white chocolate nibs. Then Caramac bars, herbal teas, corn starch, sugary breakfast cereals and mushroom powder. Reduction brought out savoury broths, green pepper, vanilla pods in a leather bag and malted milk. In the background that signatory kiss of parmesan emerged. The neat palate was rich in texture and full of grassy olive and rapeseed oils. Curious notes of oranges dipped in iron fillings, farmhouse cider, sheep wool oils and mechanical touches like WD40. With water we noted furry peach skins, baking starch, Matcha green tea, browner butter, pollen-heavy flowers and quinine.
