- Description
- This 2022 special release from Mortlach diverges from the distillery's sherry-cask tradition by employing red-muscat and tawny-port finishes alongside virgin oak. The result is bold and layered, with dark red fruit, spice, and oaky structure taking centre stage over the distillery's typical character. Bottled at cask strength, it suits those seeking Speyside whisky with unconventional depth and richness.
