Described by whisky connoisseurs as “The Beast of Dufftown” for its rich and powerful flavours, Mortlach is launching a new variety – the Mortlach Rare Old.
Incorporating fruit and floral notes, and introducing a rich, energetic palate, the Mortlach Rare Old is an exquisite balance of sweetness and dryness. This is what Mortlach is known for, with all whiskies produced in a complicated and distinctive distillation process.
Powerful and unique in flavour, Mortlach is a ‘best-kept secret’ among those in the whisky- know, with previous limited quantities on-sale being snapped up quickly by enthusiasts. Now, after decades as a Single Malt captured by blenders for use in some of the world’s finest Scotch Whisky blends, Mortlach is being given its own time to shine as a high-quality, luxurious malt in its own right.
Commenting on Mortlach’s unique distillation process, Global Brand Ambassador for Mortlach and Scotch Whisky expert Georgie Bell says: “The richness and authenticity of Mortlach’s heritage is what, along with its extraordinarily distinct flavour, really sets it apart. This distillation process, described as ‘2.81 Distilled’, made a significant impact on the whisky’s production and is still reflected in the way it is manufactured today, at the very same Mortlach Distillery. Mortlach can finally take up its rightful position as one of the finest premium Single Malts in the world and be enjoyed by more than just a handful of privileged connoisseurs.”
Inspired by the golden age of engineering in which the liquid was born, Mortlach is presented in a striking and iconic contemporary-style bottle, which boasts strong lines and a generous decanter-style neck designed to protect and enhance the fine whisky it contains. For any with a passion for the very finest of Scotch Whiskies, Mortlach should fittingly take pride of place front and centre of the drinks cabinet.
Mortlach Rare Old is available from Dan Murphy’s (www.danmurphys.com.au) nationwide, RRP $110.00.
