Each release of Fettercairn single malt whisky showcases a maturation journey that enhances the tropical distillery character derived from our unique copper cooling ring distillation process.

2023 saw the first release from our Warehouse collection with the arrival of Warehouse 14 Batch No.001 which was crafted from a hand-picked selection of ex-bourbon barrels and local beer barrels; filled with spirit that flowed from the Fettercairn stills in 2016 and has since been maturing in Fettercairn Warehouse 14.

COLOUR: Natural colour of shimmering gold.
TASTE: Vanilla, myriads of enticing tropical fruits, honey and floral charm.
FINISH: Warm toasty maltiness, tropical fruits with layers of crème caramel, apricot tart, cacao, soft wood spices and a pleasing nuttiness.

Wolfburn has come of age

A significant milestone for the Wolfburn distillery – this 10-year-old single malt is its first permanent age statement release. The whisky spent its full maturation in second-fill oloroso sherry casks resulting in a sumptuously sweet, fruit-laden profile, backed by dense oak and silky caramel.

Waterford – Irish Single Malt – Masterclass

In collaboration with the Maltclan.

Unexpectedly we have got the opportunity to host a tasting with Ruari Reynier of Waterford distillery. Waterford is maybe a difficult brand to grasp, but it is oooohhhhh sssuuuccchhhh an exciting brand as well. Proofing terroir in whisky is pushing the boundaries of the known whisky industry.

Secure your place here

It gives us also the chance to give some of you a sneak preview in our Box Bizar project which we are setting up in the little church of Ten Broek.

A bit about the brand: WATERFORD IS ON A QUEST TO UNEARTH WHISKY’S MOST NATURAL FLAVOURS

Unashamedly influenced by the world’s greatest winemakers, they obsessively bring the same intellectual drive, methodology and rigour to barley – the very source of malt whisky’s complex flavour.

Extolling a hundred exclusive farms of Irish-grown barley, they search for natural flavours via three paths: their Single Farm Origins pursue the individualism of terroir-derived flavour; they are the building blocks of our Cuvées, where the whole is greater than the sum. Finally their Arcadian Barley expresses the intensity of flavour from exploring the old ways – of Organic, Biodynamic, Heritage and even Irish-peated barley. Indeed, so thorough is their exploration of the frontiers of natural flavour that they are the world’s largest producer of organic and biodynamic whiskies.

WHEN: 20h00 – Friday 14th April 2023

WHERE: Zavelbergweg 7, 1640 Sint-Genesius-Rode, Belgium

COST: €30 for 8 drams

LINE-UP: very interesting, but currently unknown
