Mortlach 16 Year Old 43.4% vol. 0.7l

The Mortlach 16-year-old, also known as "The Beast of Dufftown," is an impressive single malt whisky, distinguished by its maturation in ex-sherry casks. This special aging process gives it its distinctive, almost meaty character and highlights the powerful fruit and herbal notes that Mortlach enthusiasts appreciate.

The nose opens with a harmonious interplay of ginger-like scents and fruit zests, gradually transitioning into aromas of nuts, berries, apple, and a hint of citrus. On the palate, it convinces with a rich balance of sherry sweetness, nut, and oak wood aromas, perfectly complemented by a subtle, earthy note.

The long, oily finish completes the taste experience with sweet, nutty, and herbaceous nuances. The Mortlach 16-year-old combines tradition with a modern touch and delights with its decadently lush forest fruit aromas – a complex whisky ideal for connoisseurs seeking something special.
