Old Fettercairn NAS 43% OB
This one comes from a small 5cl flat plastic container. Probably from the 80's. This seems to have endured quite some evaporation, so please take that into consideration when reading these tasting notes. Smells very strong compared to other low strength young Fettercairns I've tried. Maybe the angels has helped themselves to more of the water than the alcohol from this bottle. Malty, dry, ground coffee, a bit spirity, and some green notes, unripe bananas and wood. Needs lots of water. The aftertaste is Long, herbal and bitter.
One of the weirdest Fettercairns I've tried, but keep in mind the evaporation: 5
Old Fettercairn 8yo 43% OB
Another one from a flat 5cl bottle from the 80's, again a bit smaller than the G&M miniatures we all remember so well from the same era. This one is made of glass and the content has of what I can see no sign of evaporation. This one smells nutty, fruity, passion fruit, "meaty" dark fruits, cherries. The taste is sweet, again cherries, it has this full and thick fruitiness which is hard to describe, but really good. The aftertaste is sweet, pear, melons and some eucalyptus.
Fantastic old style Fettercairn: 8
