Mortlach Connoisseurs Choice Single Cask #426 Whisky 33 Year Old · 1987 Vintage
Out of stock
Distilled on 5 February 1987 and bottled on 26 January 2021 at 55.6% ABV, this 33-year-old Mortlach was drawn from a refill sherry hogshead (cask #426) for Gordon & MacPhail’s long-running Connoisseurs Choice Cask Strength series and yielded 182 bottles.
Three decades in sherry wood have given the whisky impressive depth while allowing Mortlach’s famously robust Speyside character – often nicknamed “The Beast of Dufftown” – to shine through.

Stewed red berries mingle with orange zest and warming nutmeg, while dark chocolate and malted biscuit provide depth, balanced by delicate herbal notes that linger.
Finish
Light to medium in length, the finish lingers with roasted nuts and a touch of toasted oak, leaving a refined, nutty warmth that fades gracefully.
