Mortlach Duncan Taylor Dimensions Single Cask #4463 Whisky 18 Year Old · 1998 Vintage

Colour

Deep burnished amber with copper-gold sheen and mahogany edges, a warm, luminous hue evoking aged sherry influence.

Nose

Opulent sherry aroma envelops dried fig, plum and raisin, braided with dark chocolate and toffee. Walnut and orange zest lift the richness, while leather, tobacco and toasted oak add savory depth; a kiss of cinnamon and clove folds the spice into a velvety, luxurious bouquet.

Palate

Silky, full-bodied mouthfeel with a lush wave of dark fruit and treacle. Rich dried fig and prune mingle with cocoa and a warm sherry sweetness, while red-berry jam hints glow in the background. Spices rise—cinnamon and clove—along with orange zest and a touch of leather. Velvet tannins frame a long, warming finish, leaving a cocoa-tinged length and espresso-kissed depth.

Finish

Silky, long finish that coats the palate in sherried fruit and cocoa. Dried fig, orange peel and dark cherry mingle with warm spice and toasted oak, expanding into a velvety, resinous fade. A refined, lingering warmth remains long after the sip, with a subtle mineral lift.
