Fettercairn 1995 Samaroli Cask n°2809 - One of 320 - bottled 2017

Cuvée presentation

A single cask (#2809) Fettercairn distilled in 1995 and bottled in 2017. Silvano Samaroli is considered one of the most influential independent bottlers of his time, and rightly so, because he is above all a spirits lover as well as pioneer. His career began at the end of the 1960s, first as an importer in Italy where he distributed the Linkwood single malt as well as several blends. It wasn’t until the following decade that his independent bottling business took off, with a cask strength bottling of the 1965 Bruichladdich 10-Year-Old. During this time, single malts weren’t nearly as popular as blends. Nevertheless, Samaroli embarked on a meticulous selection and bottling project in close contact with distilleries, and more importantly, independent Scottish bottlers. He championed whiskies from single casks and bottled at cask strength and promoted ageing in the bottle. Regarded as a visionary in many respects, some of his bottlings are considered the most legendary ever bottled, such as the 1966 Bowmore Bouquet, or the 1948 West Indies Rum. Silvano Samaroli is more than a simple player in the bottling industry; he is one of its founding icons. A limited edition of 320 bottles.

The distillery FETTERCAIRN (Old)

Scotland, Eastern Highlands. Distillery operational. Owner: Whyte & Mackay Ltd.

Remaining until 1927 in the fold of the Gladstone family, a member of which was an eminent Prime Minister in the 19th century, Fettercairn was successively run by a plethora of investors with varied intentions, before eventually winding up in the pocket of the Distillers Company Ltd in 1953. 20 years later, in 1973, it finally found balance when it became the property of Whyte & Mackay Ltd. Its bottlings were then known under the two names Fettercairn and Old Fettercairn, both used interchangeably in the 1970s. The classic bottlings of the era include Fettercairn 875 (8 year old, 75 cl). In the early 2000s, its oldest versions were reserved for the Stillman's Dram range, which it formed alongside the group's other distilleries, Dalmore (1960), Tomintoul (1975), Bruichladdich (1993), Tullibardine (1994), Tamnavulin (1994) and Isle of Jura (1995).
