Bottling Notes:
A bottling from Gordon & MacPhail’s Distillery label range of a 15 Year Old Mortlach. The Beast Of Dufftown, as Mortlach is fondly known, offers a heavier, robust side to Speyside which partners perfectly with sherry casks.
Cask Type: Sherry Cask
Tasting Notes:
Nose: Distinctly malty initially with fresh aromas of a woodland hedgerow. Delicate Sherry notes linger and weave with rich indulgent toffee, sweet liquorice, and orange marmalade.
Palate: Reminiscent of a Black Forest cake; the initial sweetness develops into fruity blackcurrant jam, maraschino cherry, and creamy vanilla. Freshly peeled orange notes add a fresh lift.
Finish: Well rounded; hints of candied citrus fruits and oak complement the lingering malty edge.
