Mortlach Rare Single Malt Scotch

Type : Scotch
ABV : 87
Producer : Mortlach Distillery
Country : Scotland
Size : 750ml
Description :

The first release from the new range of Mortlach single malts is the Mortlach Rare Old, which comes from a mixture of Sherry and bourbon casks. Those familiar with Mortlach through the Flora and Fauna release might know Mortlach as a bit of a Sherry monster, but this new bottling brings to light a complex, warming and spicy side of Mortlach's personality.

A complex and bold Mortlach Single Malt Scotch Whisky with the exquisite balance of sweetness and dryness for which the distillery is renowned. A superbly structured and well balanced whisky in which stylish fruit and floral notes on the nose introduce a rich, complex, energetic palate and a pleasantly drying finish.

Nose: Sugary biscuits (maybe Nice biscuits), baked apple and crushed nuts. Fudge and herbal, leafy notes persist.

Palate: Rich and full of palate entry, with spicy notes of cinnamon sticks and oak. Then there's vanilla, raisin and biscuit-y notes paired with dark jam (Jammy Dodgers?). That leafy, earthy note from the nose continues on the palate too.

Finish: Warm and drying with cinnamon, pepper and vanilla.

Overall: A top start to the new range of Mortlach single malts.
