Just in after a very long day, poured a glass of whisky and OMG that is something else. Mortlach 16yo. Yummity yum

awful typesetting on the label though… 😉

to be fair

which makes me wonder why I picked it up in the first place. Glad I did though

Noice! Reminds me, both 2014 and the my last few drops of Talisker seem a very long time ago. Wasted on flu. Woe is me, enjoy!

I’m really starting to believe that 16yo is a massively underrated sweet spot for whisky.

Working well for me here, though not flying international enough to keep stocked up….

It’s old enough to be allowed out on its own, sounds fine to me… 😉

I like the bottle etc. And 43% means they couldn’t be bothered to dilute it to 40%, probably too busy taste testing.

I also agree with the comment that 16s are the peak really, even if it’s in a 30 year old body like this.

I can’t bring myself to finish it… Just two fingers left :o(

Took a pic before actually tasting it I see.
Slightly biased I would say.

I may need to sample it myself to confirm …

12 – 16 yo is the tops IMO.

Can’t beat a Mortlach on the day – well maybe with a Glen Elgin or Caol Ila 🙂
