Mortlach 12 Years Whisky

Mortlach 12 Year Old, known as The Wee Witchie, is a single malt Scotch whisky from Dufftown in Speyside, a distillery nicknamed "The Beast of Dufftown" for its robust and rich character. The spirit is made using Mortlach's distinctive 2.81 distillation process, which contributes to its full and meaty profile.

Matured for 12 years in a combination of ex-bourbon and ex-sherry casks and bottled at 43.4%, it balances oak and sweetness. The nose opens with warming, toasty oak, leading to dried fruit and chocolate orange. On the palate, a sweet, concentrated start gives way to bitter chocolate, marmalade, liquorice and coffee. The finish is dry and slightly sooty, with oak and a hint of bitter plum. It is a profound and satisfying dram for the whisky enthusiast who appreciates depth and complexity.
