Next in our Paris Whisky Live wanderings was a brief brush with Mortlach… There were other whiskies on offer however ours was a brief “pitstop” before continuing on to other explorations…
Mortlach 16 year 43.4%
- Nose – Heavy sherry, plums, Christmas cake drenched in whisky, robust
- Palate – Rich and intense, more plums, raisins, heavy sherry, sweet spices
- Finish – A long strong finish
- Water – More balanced and a bit creamy
We found this was a “turbo-charged” sherry bomb. Nothing subtle or nuanced about this one!
