Velvet Fig 12-Year-Old | Now available in the EU – Wemyss Whisky News

Velvet Fig 12 Year Old is now available across selected EU markets. This limited release marks the return of Velvet Fig with a 12 year age statement, offering greater depth and concentration to the established fruit-forward, sherry-led style. Crafted exclusively from single malts matured in ex Oloroso sherry casks, it reflects the rich character that defines the series.
Velvet Fig 12 Year Old is created from a careful selection of single malts chosen for their natural richness and structure. Extended maturation in ex Oloroso sherry casks develops layers of ripe fig, dark berries, chocolate and warm spice, all brought together in a naturally rich, velvety texture.
