The 2021 release of Fettercairn 16 Year Old is the 2nd release of this single malt. It brings together spirit from Sherry matured and Sherry finished casks. A hand-picked trilogy of 1st fill Oloroso, refill Olosoro and rare 1st fill aged Palo Cortado Sherry butts brings complex nuances to the unique distillery style.
