Mortlach 16 Years Old Dufftown Single Malt Scotch Whisky ABV 43.4% Vol 750ml / 75cl

DESCRIPTION

Part of a trio of expressions announced in 2018 (which also included a 12 Year Old and a 20 Year Old), this 16 year old Mortlach single malt is drawn from sherry casks - the rich sweetness complements the intense spirit that the distillery is known for. Expect dark fruit, treacle and punchy Christmas spice notes from this one.
