The whisky is called “Sweet & Spicy Sauternes – Batch 01”
Maybe you have been to one of the virtual tastings held by Fary Lochan, then you have tasted this in a younger version. The one on the program was in a 6 year version at 46.9% and yet it was not quite the same, because it was from a slightly younger distillate than this one.
Maybe you’ve had a share of one of the Sauternes casks that have been around – but it’s not the same whisky either.

Fary Lochan has had nothing but the two mentioned aging in Sauternes casks and therefore this release is completely unique.

Sweet & Spicy Sauternes Batch 01 is a double cask-aged whisky where the aging has been almost equally divided between Bourbon and Sauternes casks, and is a “non-smoked” version.

Matured for 7 years & 3 months.
First 3 years & 6 months in a 1st Fill Bourbon Barrel
Then 3 years & 9 months in a 1st Fill Sauternes Barrique.

The casks were filled on November 5th 2015 and May 14th 2019 respectively
The whisky is bottled on February 7th 2023 at 57.2% abv

It’s a lovely dram with sweetness, freshness and just the right amount of spiciness so it just kicks off and warms you up.
