Fettercairn Distillery announced the fourth release of its popular Warehouse Collection, created by Master Whisky Maker Gregg Glass to celebrate the hidden gems within its 14 dunnage warehouses and to showcase a commitment to truly innovative and progressive maturation.

Distilled in 2014, Fettercairn Warehouse 2 Batch No. 004 has been matured in handpicked first fill ex-Bourbon barrels, alongside re-charred Hungarian wine oak casks. This unconventional selection of casks was selected from the treasure trove of aging stock in Warehouse 2, where high humidity combined with a relatively cool and temperate environment make its mark on the maturing spirit and tropical house style.

The whisky, which is non-chill filtered and bottled at 48.8% ABV, is a personal favourite of Master Whisky Maker Gregg Glass. Batch No.004 was matured in a unique environment – humid, cool and temperate – which allowed the whisky maker to enhance specific aspects of Fettercairn’s tropical character and balance the influence of each cask. 

The Warehouse Collection celebrates the unconventional approach to whisky making pioneered by and the whisky making community at this unique distillery.

“At Fettercairn we have had an opportunity to take a different perspective on whisky making,” Glass said in a news release. “The ingenuity of our unique copper cooling ring produces a brilliant and tropical new make spirit. Batch No.004 is a one-off expression that showcases Fettercairn in a new, unexpected way, which we hope will delight admirers of our distillery.”

Fettercairn Warehouse 2 Batch No.004 will be available at an RSP of £60 in key global markets including  the UK, the Netherlands, Germany, Belgium and France starting in September.
