- Description
- Mortlach's 1990 spirit aged in sherry butt 6074 and bottled at cask strength by Signatory with 569 bottles demonstrates how Speyside's funkier, oilier character responds to Spanish oak influence. Sherry maturation amplifies the distillery's inherent richness, layering dried fruit, leather, and spice over a foundation of malt sweetness and subtle meaty, sulfury notes characteristic of Mortlach. The texture is full and oily, with a long, complex finish balancing fruit, oak, and savory undertones. A challenging, rewarding dram for experienced drinkers.
