- Description
- Mortlach's 2024 Equinox & Solstice release is a 16-year-old single malt aged in refill hogshead, capturing the distillery's signature waxy, oily character. Abundant stone fruit and meaty malt notes dominate, with the refill wood allowing the spirit's natural richness to shine through. The texture is smooth and approachable, making it equally suited to neat sipping or mixing in a highball on warmer days.
