12yo Single Malt Whisky 750ml

Supplied by Coles

This is a 12 year old single malt produced at the Mortlach distillery in Speyside, unveiled recently as part of a trio including a 16YO & 20YO. This particular expression features the subtitle The Wee Witchie, which comes from the name of the tiny still that distils a portion of the whisky. It's drawn from bourbon and sherry casks, and packs a hearty punch of meaty Mortlachy malt at its core, supported by dried fruit and toffee notes. The nose is rich in toasted almond, cinder toffee and heavy barley. The palate displays warming oak and soft raisins, with a bit of olive oil salinity mixed in and lingering citrus oils cutting through on the finish.
