Mortlach

1995 - Single Malt Whisky - Prima & Ultima Second Release

70cl / 52.4% ABV

Taken from a single very special 1995 Pedro Ximenez/Oloroso seasoned European Oak butt, this 25-Year-Old tames the meaty, robust strength of Mortlach. Known as ‘The Lone Wolf’ for standing out from the pack, this whisky is exceptionally complex and rich.The Prima & Ultima 2nd Release has been personally hand-selected by Master of Malts Maureen Robinson; “This is a rare opportunity to glimpse a nobler, deeper side to the whisky famous as “The Beast of Dufftown”. It is, quite simply, delicious; a magnificent, many-layered mature malt with a character as individual as that of the uniquely complex distillery in which it was made.”

Tasting Notes

Appearance

Golden.

Body

Full bodied.

Nose

At natural strength, the aromas are rich and complex, with a succession of fruity and fragrant notes.

Palate

Lightly oaky and very lightly drying, it has well-controlled tannins. A drop of water evens it out, the sweetness still balanced by fruity acidity. It is, quite simply, delicious; a magnificent, many-layered mature malt with a character as individual as that of the uniquely complex distillery in which it was made.

Finish

A very sweet, fruity and luscious start leads into a malt that is deliciously rich and full flavoured, letting these traits shine; the whole impression is proud, rounded and balanced.
