- Description
- Mortlach's 19-year single cask (1997–2016) represents Speyside's more structured, muscular style, aged in a hogshead that has imparted rich amber colour and layered spice. The distillery's characteristic oily texture and waxy mouthfeel combine with orchard fruit, ginger, and subtle oak influence from nearly two decades of maturation. A rewarding dram for those who appreciate heavier-bodied Speysides with genuine aging character.
