Mortlach Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky 18 Year Old

Colour

Deep amber with coppery highlights and mahogany edges, a warm, sunlit hue.

Nose

Opulent, sherry-rich nose with dark plum, fig, and raisin, laced with candied orange and cocoa. Notes of leather and tobacco mingle with toffee and baked spice, while toasted oak adds a warm, resinous backbone. A hint of forest floor and molasses hints at Mortlach’s rich, meaty depth to come.

Palate

Silky and full-bodied, this Mortlach unfurls with dark plum, fig and raisin, touched by orange zest and spice. Sherry influence coats the palate in velvety sweetness—amber caramel, cocoa, and toasted almond—while a hint of espresso depth deepens the center. The finish is long, warm and refined, with lingering oak and a whisper of spice.

Finish

Opulent, long finish with dark prune and fig evolving into cacao and leather, underpinned by toasted oak. Sherry depth folds through the warmth, leaving a velvety spice echo and a refined, lingering sweetness.
