Mortlach 2022 Special Release 57.8% ABV 750ml

Mortlach, a Speyside distillery with a reputation for its rich and meaty character, produces this limited-edition expression. The 2022 release, bottled at a robust 57.8% ABV, boasts an intensified flavour profile with dark fruit notes, hints of chocolate, and a touch of spice. This is a whiskey for those who appreciate bold, full-bodied drams.

Nestled in its dark, historic vale, Mortlach has long lured aficionados to its deep and magnetic character. It has its own aura; the light seems to draw lower through its hallowed doors. Even the way of things is different, the whisky 2.81 times distilled in six singing stills arranged in a pattern found nowhere else. Part science, part mystery. Bold, yet enigmatic.

Gleaming with ruby light, this legendary whisky was finished in a combination of Virgin Oak, Tawny Port and Red Muscat wine casks enhancing its deep amber colour. Robust aromas of rich wine and sweet grape entwine with Mortlach meatiness. Dark and richly layered, the intense, lively and sweetly fruity taste glows with gingery depth spiced by original part-maturation in Virgin Oak. Late at night, in flickering light, the finish soars above all. A whisky to cherish; sweetness, darkness and depth drawn together in mystical union.
