MORTLACH CASK rare old

Formerly one of the less well-known gems of Speyside, coveted by those in the know, Mortlach's light is now being firmly pushed from under its bushel with a luxurious new range of single malts. The first available release in the new luxury Mortlach range, the Rare Old expression has been matured in a combination of bourbon and sherry casks and balances distillery character with cask influence to create a wonderfully tasty dram with a meaty character reminiscent of one of the distillery's former bottlings - the 16 year old Flora and Fauna edition. The bottles for this range are designed to reflect Victorian engineering designs in a tribute to one of the key figures in Mortlach's history, George Cowie, a civil engineer.
