Tasting Notes

Prepare to embark on a captivating journey through the realms of flavor with Mannochmore's 12 Year Old Palo Cortado Cask Finish. This masterfully crafted single malt whisky boasts a delightful fusion of crisp, bright citrus notes reminiscent of candied lemon, fresh orange, and tantalizing marmalade, seamlessly intertwined with the warmth of vanilla and the velvety richness of citrus buttercream. As the liquid graces the palate, it unfurls a tapestry of dark, tangy sweetness evocative of dried blood-orange wheels and burnt brown sugar, accompanied by a peppery warmth and delicate herbaceous undertones that gradually unfold. The lingering finish is a harmonious symphony of zesty citrus, orange peel, and lemon drizzle, perfectly balanced by a savory, herbaceous spice. This exceptional whisky owes its character to a meticulous finish in custom-made Palo Cortado sherry octave casks, where the spirit had ample opportunity to interact with the oak, imparting a depth of flavor that is sure to captivate even the most discerning of palates.
