Product description

Product description
This Mortlach from the Speyside distillery with the special 2.8-fold distillation process was bottled for the Special Releases 2023. Under the motto. Themed 'Spirited Xchange', this year's bottlings represent cross-cultural collaboration with a range of Single Malt expressions inspired by countries from around the world. This series of original bottlings perpetuates iconic whisky characters with curiosity, passion and Taste. The Mortlach Single Malt Whisky was matured in ex-Japanese Kanosuke whisky casks and Pinot Noir wine casks, which add a wild umami note and savoury sweetness to the end result.

The Distillery: Mortlach

The Mortlach distillery was the first of Dufftown’s famous seven distilleries. The distillery was also the first legal distillery in the town, which is quite a distinction, especially when we consider the impressive amount of illicit activity that was occurring around the site at that time. read more

    Aroma: Grapefruit Orange Lemon Peel

    Geschmack: Hazelnut Almonds Caramel

    Abgang: Sherry Date Almonds

    Kommentar: Guter Whisky, geniale Verpackung
  • Herstellerbeschreibung
    on 29.09.2023
    Aroma: Verführerische Aromen von reifer Melone und Birne.

    Geschmack: Trocken-würzige, herzhafte Noten und ausbalancierte Süße verbinden sich mit deutlichen Komponenten von Umami.

    Abgang: Lang, verlockend und würzig.

    Aroma: Berries Strawberry Black Currant Oil Nutmeg Cinnamon Oak Floral Salt Sweet Chocolate

    Geschmack: Orange Grape Black Currant Berries Ham Plum Tobacco Nutmeg Cinnamon Fig Mint

    Abgang: Tobacco Leather Berries Chocolate Oak

    Kommentar: Das Stichwort lautet hier „Komplexität“. Dieser Malt ist ein wahres Wunder der Geschmacksvielfalt. Er ist wunderschön, um es mit dem Wasser mal nicht ganz genau zu nehmen und verschafft einem, im Laufe der Zeit, einzigartige Momente. Diageo ist leider sehr intransparent und so hat man sich hier für einen teuren NAS Whisky entschieden. Ich würde glauben, dass in diesem Malt einige ältere Fässer ein Zuhause gefunden haben, jedenfalls erinnert er mich an die besten NAS Geschichten aus alten Tagen, etwa den Royal Lochnagar Selected Reserve oder dem Laphroaig Lore. Einen Abzug gebe ich für den Preis und die wenigen Informationen seitens Diageo. Mit der tollen Verpackung wäre er mir 190

    Der Whisky ist mit seinem Preis eine einzige Dreistigkeit.
    Die wenigen Rezensionen, die es bei YT gibt, sind oft recht vernichtend.

    Diageo, der Mutterkonzern, ist völlig abgedreht.
    Kommt mir nichtmehr in den Warenkorb.
    Was man bspw alles für dieses Geld hier an großartigen Abfüllungen kaufen kann...
