When the whiskey was launched, it was accompanied by these words: \"When day transcends to night, light changes and shadows emerge. Mortlach Midnight Malt captures the feeling of this moment. Unexpected layers of richness and intensity emerge from a three-cask finish of bold provenance.\" For a brand whiskey that is already known for its rich seductiveness, it set expectations high.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nBut the Mortlach’s Midnight Malt didn’t fall short. Rested in the combination of American and European Oak, it was then split to finish in casks, seasoned with Bordeaux wine, Calvados, and Guatemalan rum. The whisky was married again in custom quarter casks. The final result is a deep, dark whisky that reveals all of its layers of flavor slowly through the darkest hours of the night. Its release is limited to just 350 bottles annually. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nDon’t miss this chance to get yours!                            \u003cdiv class=\"caskers-brand-info\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"story-subtitle\"\u003eAbout Mortlach\u003c\/h2\u003e\n                                            Situated in the heart of the Speyside region of Scotland, Dufftown is known as the Whisky Capital of the World. The village, which produces more malt whisky than any other town in Scotland, is home to seven distilleries, the oldest of which is Mortlach Distillery.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nMortlach Distillery was founded in 1823 by James Findlater, together with his friends Alexander Gordon and James Macintosh. In 1831, however, Findlater sold the distillery to John Robertson for the paltry sum of ₤270. In 1837, it was sold again to John and James Grant, who dismantled the distilling equipment and shuttered the doors to the distillery. For the next two decades, the building was used first as a brewery, and then, rather curiously, a church. In 1851, however, the distillery began producing whisky once more. Even at the time, it was an impressive distillery, according to the Wine \u0026amp; Spirits Trade Record. The distillery had two still-houses: \"in one there are three old-fashioned stills…in the other there are three larger stills, installed in 1897.\" The distillery also had \"four gigantic malt floors, and the largest mash tun in the district.\"\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nIn 1964, the distillery was largely rebuilt and today houses a unique configuration of six stills. The stills — three wash stills and three spirit stills — are each different shapes and sizes (one still is nicknamed \"Wee Witchie\" because it is shaped like a witch’s cap), and aren’t paired together. This unusual configuration, together with the partial triple distillation method used at Mortlach Distillery, produces a whisky that is full-bodied and meaty.                                        \u003cdiv class=\"brand-link\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.caskers.com\/spirits\/?brand_dropdown=2711\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eExplore all Mortlach bottles \u0026gt;\u0026gt;\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"caskers-spirit-type-info\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"story-subtitle\"\u003eAbout Scotch\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eScotch is the most popular whisky in the world and is considered the king of them all!
