Founded in 1823 by James Findlater, Mortlach was the first legal distillery to be constructed in Dufftown. Dufftown is now the home of many other distilleries in the Speyside whisky region. For a period the distillery was also used as a brewery and a church. Current owners Diageo use much of the whisky produced in the Johnnie Walker bottling's. There is also an official core range of four single malts introduced in 2018. Since its release the new brand has proven popular and sales are reported to be very healthy. Other recent expressions of note are- The oldest official Mortlach bottling, a 47 year old as part of the Special Releases range. Plus a 25 year old Prima & Ultima swiftly followed by a Rare by Nature 21 year old. Mortlach is well know for being popular with the independent bottlers and it’s quality really shines when matched with ex-sherry casks.

Official Tasting Notes
Nose – A mellow and rounded nose-feel lulls the senses, then introduces a first soaring note of freshly oiled wood. Next, rising through this, savoury and meaty notes suggest the beast within yet also carry a sweet tartness, suggesting roast pheasant with redcurrant jelly. The senses are heightened as these pitch perfect aromas in turn reveal a deeper moorland base-note, rich in heather pollen and freshly crushed herbs. A drop of water completes the anticipation, bringing out a sweet, fruity hint of lime.
Palate – The pleasure builds still more, as a big, supersmooth texture envelops the palate. The wonderfully intense taste is vanilla-sweet yet easily embraces a savoury finish, spicy-dry as the new oak makes its presence felt, with a surprising kick of chilli-pepper in the swallow. Magnificently feral and full of life on the palate, these flavours race across the tongue.
Finish – Long and deeply impressive, with power, fruit and spiciness in perfect harmony as a warming peppery glow spreads out in the aftertaste, in which a dash of water brings up a fresh floral-herbal note to light the deepening night.
