Mortlach (Special Release 2022)
This mystifying Mortlach single malt Scotch joins Diageo's 2022 Special Releases. The cask strength expression was finished in a combination of ex-tawny Port, ex-red Muscato, and virgin oak casks, inspiring a rather spooky blood moon on the label. There's also an owl, that looks a little menacing, perhaps ready to take on The Beast of Dufftown?
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Big nose! Brown sugar, dried fruit, dark caramel, chocolate, coffee, date, and cherry.
Palate
Full and spicy, caramel, toffee, dark chocolate, bitter espresso, aromatic pink peppercorns.
Finish
Muscovado sugar, a touch of wood tannin, and dark chocolate. Long and intense.
Overall
Big whisky, sweet and bitter, but with a good balance.
