This sumptuous and decadent whisky has been twice matured- firstly in an ex-bourbon hogshead followed by a generous finishing period soaking in first fill Pedro Ximenez sherry cask. This beautifully balanced un-peated spirit from Fettercairn distillery has been bottled at cask strength. As always, our single malt is proudly offered to you free from colouring or chill-filtration. Each one of our lovely bottles are individually filled and labelled by hand. These rare bottles are highly collectable but we think are best enjoyed with your feet up, glass in hand and a good record spinning.
WHY THE NAME - BROWN EYED GIRL?
This single malt has been imparted a deep, rich amber brown colour from it’s time spent soaking in first fill sherry oak. The whisky is smooth, rich and elegant with the flavour of the liquid beautifully delivering what the colour promises.

Nose
Rich and thick toffee climbs out of the glass followed by dark chocolate aromas and a more delicate toasted hazelnut. A soft vanilla in a leather jacket skulks about in the back.
Palate
Dates, toffee and nuttiness accompany an initial spice which is followed by a bitter dark chocolate. Dried figs emerge alongside glace ginger.
Finish
A long and unctuous butterscotch coat the mouth mingling with the chocolate a long long time after the spirit is gone. Delicate spices emerge as the sweetness eventually fades with hints of nutmeg, cinnamon and new(ish) leather.
