- Description
- Mortlach, a Speyside distillery celebrated for its rich, oily spirit, is represented here at nine years old from a pair of first-fill bourbon barrels, bottled at cask strength by Signatory. The short maturation in active wood brings bold vanilla, caramel, and toasted grain to the fore, showcasing the distillery's characteristic sulphury, meaty character beneath. The texture is full and assertive with a spicy, warming finish. This cask-strength bottling suits those seeking an unfiltered, uncompromised view of Mortlach's powerful, complex character.
