Single Malt
Scotland
An old school bottle of 15-year-old single malt from Mortlach, aged in first fill and refill sherry casks before it was independently released by Gordon and MacPhail.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Very tasty and priced extremely well.
Amazing dram. Fantastic on the nose and great on the palate. A true all round experience for an amazing price.
I was very happy with this purchase. Someone said sulfur? No sulfur here. Tasted it with Macallan. The Mortlach was superior. I'm going to get another bottle if I can.
Recommended by Strachan's of Aboyne and glad I am that they did - I love big spicy, deeply caramely speysides - this is just the ticket for an end of night dram or two after an evening out perhaps with a partagas d4
Nose: Wagyu tartar, pineapple upside down cake, nutmeg, pumpkin custard, rainier cherries, plum blossoms...toasted malt reminiscent of olden days, honey, cloves. Palate: Very sweet! Also spicy, and somewhat salty and savory...Gingerbread men, vanilla frosted spice cake, nutmeg, marshmallow topped yams, maraschino cherries, fruitcake (a good thing here)...eucalyptus, wintergreen, hints of citrus, cream. High quality copper pot still qualities are evident. Despite such sweetness, somehow a nice balance is achieved. Richly complex and full of character. Long finish. Very unique, perhaps too sweet for some. Great price!
