Mortlach 20 Year Old Scotch Whisky 750mL
The oldest of three Mortlach single malts unveiled recently alongside the Mortlach 12YO & Mortlach 16YO this expression matured for 20 years exclusively in sherry casks. Intensely flavoursome stuff as you would expect from this distillery.
The elegant older sibling of the two younger bottlings, this wonderful old expression of the special Dufftown distillery is aged exclusively in sherry butts. Deep and complex with tons of richness, the 20 Year Old doesn't have quite the bite of its younger siblings, but it easily outperforms the old 25 Year Old, which it replaces at a fraction of the price. We don't see a whole lot of mature sherried Mortlach, and there's no doubt that the distillery is picking the very finest casks for this new expression. Considering where the market is going for older sherried distillery bottlings, the new 20 Year Old is a steal. Now, if only we can get them to bottle this as a cask-strength single barrel!
