Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky Bottled by: Gordon & MacPhail 70cl / 50.7%
A remarkable single cask sherried Mortlach 1969 50-year-old, bottled in 2019 without colouring or chill filtration by Gordon & MacPhail for their incredible Private Collection series. This 1969 Mortlach is presented in an elegant decanter with a very handsome wooden box.
This exquisite Private Collection Mortlach from Gordon & MacPhail was distilled in 1969 and aged for 50 years in first-fill sherry butt #92001201 before being bottled in 2019 with a yield of 365 bottles at an impressive cask strength of 50.7%. It's no secret that G&M have better stock of long-aged Mortlach than the distillery themselves, and these ancient sherry casks from the Aladdin's cave up in Elgin always deliver magic in a glass.

Tasting Notes
Official Tasting Notes
Nose: Aromatic ginger and brown sugar aromas combine, giving way to rich cocoa beans. A subtle vanilla edge develops alongside succulent fruitcake and roasted almond notes.
Palate: Smooth and rich with flavours of ripe forest fruits and fragrant blood orange peel are complemented by subtle traces of white pepper. Cinnamon comes to the fore alongside intense dark chocolate with mature oak.
Finish: Long and smooth with lingering chocolate smothered almonds and oak tannins.

2 bottles of this lovely single malt were bought as gifts. Sampled a couple of drams from one bottle and it went well above expectations. The quality, integrity, natural colour, cask strength ABV and value-for-money made these bottles 'no-brainers'.
Present us with more of these quality bottles at fair prices...and we'll buy more.
This is a heavily sherried dram that tastes of dates and raisins with a touch of honey and vanilla. It’s pretty soft and smooth without water but a few drops seem to thicken it up slightly and add hints of caramel. Absolutely gorgeous.
