Product description
Warehouse 14 is the fifth and final installment of the Fettercairn Warehouse Collection.
Its creator, master distiller Gregg Glass, showed the influence of the barrel and the maturing warehouse on shaping the whisky's profile (previous editions came from warehouse no. 2). For the edition presented here, the master selected whisky distilled in 2016, aged in bourbon barrels (first and second fill) in warehouse no. 14, then poured it into barrels from three types of local beer - stout, dark ale and pale ale. Their contents were blended, and the final effect was bottled at 51.2% abv, natural color and without chill filtration. The whisky went on sale in March 2023.
Nose: barley malt and tropical fruits, pineapple, honeydew melon, papaya, vanilla, honey, sugar-roasted nuts, blossoming apple tree and toasted oak.
Palate : vanilla, caramel, crème brûlée, milk chocolate, dried apricots, nectarines, melons, nougat, candied ginger and toasted oak.
