- Description
- Mortlach's 1997 distillate was matured for 12 years before Diageo's Managers' Choice program bottled it as a single cask in 2009 at full natural strength (57.1% ABV). Mortlach's signature heavy, slightly sulphury Speyside character shines at cask strength, with rich malt and spice. A bottling for enthusiasts who appreciate the distillery's bold, uncompromising fingerprint.
