Tasting
How it drinks
Sight
Rich amber with warm copper tones from heavy sherry maturation. Deep and full — classic Flora & Fauna bottling colour
Nose
Sticky maple syrup, sharp sherried fruit, mulching grass and mint. Iberico ham, walnuts, dark malt, and well-aged sherry. Spiced fruit notes with noticeable Speyside citrus peel. A cult classic nose
Palate
Rich taste of caramel, brittle toffee and polished wood. Full-bodied with the unmistakable Mortlach meatiness enveloped in heavy sherry influence. Walnuts, dark malt, and dried fruit. The definitive old-style Mortlach bottling
Finish
Long, warming finish with sherry sweetness and savoury depth. Toffee and polished wood linger. A benchmark expression that launched the Mortlach cult following before discontinuation in 2014
