A rich, bold 17 year old Morlach released by Signatory for their Cask Strength Collection. Especially chosen by Andrew Symington, founder of Signatory Vintage.
Filled on the 27th November 2007 the whisky was finished in a single 1st fill Oloroso sherry butt cask #201. Bottling was on the 5th of February 2025 at 56.8% abv.
This single malt is both rich and elegant where the full bodied spirit of Morlach integrates perfectly with the rich, dark sweeter notes from the Oloroso sherry cask. A taste of Speyside not to be missed.


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.
