Blackadder Whisky Sample 2006 Fettercairn Raw Cask 11 Year Old 2018 Release (30ml, 51.6%)

Whenever you dive into a Blackadder Raw Cask, you are signing up for whisky in its most primal, unfiltered form. Robin Tucek’s philosophy means this liquid contains zero chill-filtration, zero artificial colouring, and a healthy layer of actual black oak cask sediment sitting right at the bottom of the bottle.

Fettercairn is a fascinating choice for the Raw Cask treatment. It is a Highland distillery famous for its unique copper cooling rings that drench the outside of the stills with cold water, forcing immense reflux. This creates a spirit loaded with unique tropical top notes (like banana and pineapple) but anchored by a heavy, metallic, and earthy base. At 11 years oldfrom the 2006 vintage, this cask captures Fettercairn right as the wild, tropical oils reach full throttle.
