Mortlach
Product Details
Mortlach 1995 Single Malt Whisky, Prima and Ultima Second Release, 700ml
Taken from a single very special 1995 Pedro Ximenez/Oloroso seasoned European Oak butt, this 25-Year-Old tames the meaty, robust strength of Mortlach. Known as ‘The Lone Wolf’ for standing out from the pack, this whisky is exceptionally complex and rich. The Prima & Ultima 2nd Release has been personally hand-selected by Master of Malts Maureen Robinson; “This is a rare opportunity to glimpse a nobler, deeper side to the whisky famous as “The Beast of Dufftown”. It is, quite simply, delicious; a magnificent, many-layered mature malt with a character as individual as that of the uniquely complex distillery in which it was made.”
Nose
At natural strength, the aromas are rich and complex, with a succession of fruity and fragrant notes.
Body
Full bodied.
Palate
Lightly oaky and very lightly drying, it has well-controlled tannins. A drop of water evens it out, the sweetness still balanced by fruity acidity. It is, quite simply, delicious; a magnificent, many-layered mature malt with a character as individual as that of the uniquely complex distillery in which it was made.
Finish
A very sweet, fruity and luscious start leads into a malt that is deliciously rich and full flavoured, letting these traits shine; the whole impression is proud, rounded and balanced.
