About myself

I have been enjoying scotch single malt whisky for some years, an interest that started around 2003. I remember that it really went through the roof after a Smokehead Islay Malt, but for a favorite distillery I had to wait until I won a 1997 Fettercairn at 62.3% Distillery Bottling at an auction back in 2007. I had tried Fettercairn before in its usual watered down state, but this was something totally different than anything else I'd ever tried. Since that day I have always been on the lookout for whiskies from this little talked about highland distillery. My ultimate goal is to try 100 different expressions distilled at Fettercairn Distillery. I do have some samples, but mostly 0.7l bottles, and will try to get photos of most of 'em up here on the site. +++ other fun stuff about this malt.
