Tasting Notes
This Mortlach 10 Year Old single malt is a true sherry powerhouse, crafted by independent bottler Decadent Drinks. Distilled in 2012, it spent nearly a decade maturing, first in hogsheads and then finished in first-fill sherry butts. The initial aroma hints at the richness to come, with sticky, sherried fruit mingling with leathery oak and notes of aged fruit cake. On the palate, stewed blackberries and plums mingle with robust malt, while chocolate-coated coffee beans and praline add a decadent layer, cushioning the woody spice. The finish is big and bold, with earthy coffee and spice notes complemented by sprinkles of cacao and a touch of maple syrup. Bottled at cask strength, this intensely sherried whisky is a true sherry monster, delivering a meaty and indulgent experience for those who crave bold, full-bodied flavors.
