Mortlach 20 Year Old

Volume: 700ml / ABV: 43.4%

The oldest of three Mortlach single malts unveiled in mid-2018 (alongside the Mortlach 12 Year Old and Mortlach 16 Year Old), this expression is matured solely in sherry casks and crafted to match rich and dark sherry character against old, refined oaky notes. Intensely flavoursome stuff (as we've come to expect from Mortlach).

Tasting Note

Nose

Roast chestnuts and tobacco, swiftly joined by dense chocolate and red berry richness. Just a whisper of meaty malt underneath.

Palate

Clove and brandy butter arrive first, before chewy dates, orange peel, mature oak and Hobnob biscuits.

Finish

Lasting Christmas spice and a touch of cooked summer berries.
