When day transcends to night, as light changes and shadows emerge, senses are heightened, conversations take an intriguing twist and the deepest darkest secrets are revealed.
Mortlach Midnight Malt captures the intensity of this moment; a rare and magnetic invitation into the boldest, deepest and most intriguing expression of out malt. Unexpected layers of richness and intensity emerge from a three-cask finish of bold provenance: Bordeaux wine, Calvados and Guatemalan rum. Finely aged 30 years, this is a rich, deep dark whisky to savour in the darker hours.
Limited release of only 350 bottles annually.
Only 18 bottles available in Australia.
Tasting Notes
Appearance:
Old gold, dull amber. Excellent beading.
Nose:
A mellow nose with some initial prickle. This settles in time to reveal a savoury and faintly herbal top note, suggesting pork crackling sprinkled with dry sage. Beneath lies a deeper, more vinous note with intriguing and rich notes of dark rum, toffee brittle and drying traces of chocolate.
Body:
Full.
Palate:
A richly winey, apple fruity and mouth-watering start delights the palate, backed by a long spicy intensity with a delicious black pepper note that really persists.
Finish:
Long, sweet and deep-flavoured, with a light peppery spiciness. With water, still sweet and softer, with the spicy heat joined by a suggestion of mint chocolate in the lingering aftertaste.
