Mortlach 12YO on Sale at The Whisky Shop – Scotch Whisky News

Mortlach 12YO

Dubbed ‘The Wee Witchie’, the 12-year-old is an ode to one of the array of six uniquely and oddly shaped stills at Mortlach where the spirit is distilled 2.81 times in a complicated process referred to as ‘The Way’. But we don’t need to go into any confusing details like that to simply enjoy this meaty, full-bodied malt.

This 12-year-old Speyside single malt comes from the new Mortlach range, launched in 2018. Known as ‘the Beast of Dufftown’, Mortlach is distilled 2.81 times in a complicated process referred to simply as ‘The Way’. This single malt, dubbed ‘The Wee Witchie’, is matured in American and European oak ex-bourbon and sherry casks before being bottled at 43.4% abv.

Meaty and sulphurous, this expression showcases the raw character of the distillery.
