The Fettercairn 1977 #6 is a Highland single malt whisky with a rich history and exceptional flavor profile. Distilled on December 23, 1977, at the Fettercairn Distillery, this whisky was aged for an impressive 40 years before being bottled in 2018 by the renowned Fettercairn brand. It spent the final years of its maturation in a Gonzales Byass Apostoles palo cortado sherry cask, which imparted layers of dark fruit, citrus, and toffee to this elegantly fruity whisky.
This limited edition whisky was bottled at a strength of 48.9% ABV, with only 818 bottles produced. The nose is a delightful bouquet of sweet honey, treacle, molasses, and a touch of ginger, complemented by rich sherry notes. On the palate, it offers a rich and sweet experience with notes of toffee, raisins, orange, and brown sugar, finished with a hint of spice. The finish is long and lingering, revealing hints of sherry, licorice, and spice, creating a complex and well-balanced whisky that combines fresh fruit and sherry cask character with a touch of balsamic sweetness.
