Sansibar Mortlach 1998 10th Anniversary

Sansibar Mortlach 1998 10th Anniversary is a limited-edition Speyside single malt Scotch whisky released to celebrate ten years of Sansibar Whisky. Distilled at Mortlach in 1998 and matured for 22 years in a single Sherry butt, this exceptional expression brings together the distillery's rich, full-bodied character with the elegance of extended oak ageing. Aromas of caramel cream, heather, honeyed toast and roasted coffee lead into a powerful palate of dried fruit, coconut and aromatic herbs. Bottled at 56.4% ABV, with only 347 bottles produced, it delivers a complex, beautifully structured whisky with a long, refined finish.

Food Pairing: Roasted lamb, aged Gouda, dark chocolate truffles, walnut cake, dried figs, coffee desserts or caramel pudding.

Tasting Notes: Coconut, caramel cream, heather, grapefruit, roasted coffee, honeyed toast, dried fruit and mature oak.

Nose: Coconut cream, caramel, heather, grapefruit, roasted coffee and honey on buttered toast.

Palate: Rich coconut, heather honey, dried herbs and dried fruit, supported by a powerful, full-bodied texture.

Finish: Exceptionally long, with coffee, raisins, mature oak and gently drying spice.

Serve: Enjoy neat in a Glencairn glass, allowing time for its mature aromas to develop. A few drops of water may soften its strength and reveal additional sweetness.
