Mortlach 12 Year Old "The Wee Witchie" Single Malt Scotch Whisky, 750mL

Mortlach 12 Year Old "The Wee Witchie" Single Malt Scotch Whisky hails from the historic Mortlach Distillery in Dufftown, Scotland, established in 1823. This expression is named after the distillery's smallest still, affectionately called "The Wee Witchie," which plays a crucial role in Mortlach's unique 2.81 distillation process. Matured in a combination of ex-bourbon and ex-sherry casks, this whisky offers a rich and complex flavor profile. On the nose, it presents aromas of roasted grains, tart plums, toffee, and marzipan. The palate reveals notes of fresh sultanas, martini olives, walnuts, and wood, leading to a medium-length finish with hints of lemon curd and olive oil. Bottled at 43.4% ABV, this whisky embodies the robust and meaty character that has earned Mortlach the nickname "The Beast of Dufftown."
