A character in The Weirdstone of Brisingamen ( Alan Garner), a young-adult fantasy set in Alderley Edge in Cheshire, is called Fenodyree. The fenodyree is reputed to collect the sheep for the shepherd when there is a storm, as sung in verse. [16] [d] The wort is then transported to The Fynoderee Distillery in Ramsey for fermentation, where we add our chosen strains of yeast to create our house 'wash'.

The Fynoderee Distilleryin Ramsey is dedicated to the production (and enjoyment!) of premium spirits with genuineManxroots and heritage.Our “green hills by the sea” are green for good reason! The Isle of Man is blessed with high rainfall and a sophisticated supply of pristine, soft water ideal for 'mashing'. Once upon a time there was a little juniper bush, the very last of its kind on the Isle of Man. It lived up high at the top Glen Auldyn in the north of the Island where it was discovered and well-meaningly transplanted to the Milntown Estate at the bottom of the glen, where very sadly it didn’t survive.

Another tale describes the Fenodyree doing the farmer's work of rounding up the wethers ( gelded ram sheep) that grazed on Snaefell (mountain) and bringing them into the pen; in the process, the fairy mistakenly brought in a hare which he mistook for a little ram. [20] A rendition of this is incorporated into the story cobbled together published as "The Fynoderee of Gordon" by Sophia Morrison, where the fairy herds the sheep into a "cogee house" (a weaving house [31]), and mingled among the sheep is a big hare he mistook for a Loaghtan. [30] This has been described as "the most notable" exploit by the Fenodyree in Morrison's tale.
