Fettercairn 2008 10 Year Clan Denny (Douglas McGibbon)
Single Malt — Highland, Scotland

April 15, 2023
Color: Dandelion wine.
Nose: Cereal malt and a juicy lemon zest. Citrus notes give way to grass and a little light buttered toast.
Palate: Mild nuttiness, like lightly roasted cashews, with a continuation of the citrus notes. Faint powdered cocoa and marzipan.
Finish: Short and shallow - would like to try this at full strength. Nonetheless, pleasant floral tang and bready sweetness.
Diluted: Nose is sweeter and fruitier, with banana and honeycomb. Palate holds the honey with a light dusting of mandarin shavings, though the finish remains a little disappointing.
