Mortlach Single Malt Scotch Whisky Aged 16 Years Distiller's Dram

Mortlach 16 Year Old "Distiller's Dram" is a deeply rich and robust Speyside single malt that perfectly showcases the distillery's signature meaty and complex character, which famously earned it the nickname "The Beast of Dufftown." Produced using Mortlach's incredibly intricate 2.81 distillation process, this expression is matured exclusively in ex-sherry casks—specifically a curated mix of first-fill and refill Oloroso and Pedro Ximénez. Bottled at 43.4% ABV, it delivers a decadent, heavy-bodied profile bursting with notes of dark plum, stewed orchard fruits, leather, and roasted nuts, all wrapped in a long, velvety finish of dark chocolate and earthy spice. It is a masterful, muscular dram that deeply appeals to sherry-cask enthusiasts and those looking for a bolder alternative to traditional light and floral Speyside whiskies.
