MORTLACH 21 YEAR OLD SINGLE MALT SCOTCH WHISKY

Strong and feral yet extraordinarily well-mannered, Mortlach 21 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a glorious expression of patience and careful craft. This Mortlach was matured in small batches for rich distillery character, then thoughtfully finished in Pedro Ximenez and Oloroso-seasoned casks. The aroma runs deep, offering dried dark fruit layered above fresh-baked buttered scones and lightly savory, meaty notes. Bottled at natural cask strength, this special release features a wonderfully smooth, mouth-filling taste that is sweet with dried fruits, then intense and savory with a surprising kick of chili pepper. These harmoniously balanced flavors carry into a seemingly endless, drying finish that wreathes the palate in a warming afterglow. This powerful malt is best served with a small dash of water to enhance the notes of sweet, spiced fruit.
