Mortlach Cooper's Choice - Single Cask #9050 Whisky 12 Year Old · 2000 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with coppery highlights and a mahogany hue.

Nose

Opulent and enveloping, this Mortlach releases sherried depth from the first sniff: dark fruit—raisin, fig, prune—with orange zest, woven through cocoa, toffee and a polished oak backbone. A touch of leather and tobacco lends old-world elegance to this single-cask expression.

Palate

Velvety and full-bodied, this Mortlach single-cask delivers a sherry-kissed palate of fig, prune and raisin, mingling with dark chocolate and toffee. Orange zest brightens the mid palate as spice—cinnamon and clove—peers through. Toasted oak lends structure with a gentle bite, while a warm, lingering finish carries coffee bean and leather notes.

Finish

Sherry-kissed and velvety, the finish lingers with dark fruit and spice: raisin, fig and plum mingle with cocoa and orange zest, settling into toasted almond and tobacco notes. A warm oak-resin glow slowly fades to a refined, long finish.
