Mortlach 16 Years Distiller's Dram

The Mortlach distillery is known for its unordinary distillation process, which was created by Alexander Cowie in the 19th century. The spirit is led through six differently formed pot stills, cut off by pipe bends several times and is distilled 2,81 times. The taste of the 'Beast of the Dufftown' is especially strong and full-bodied. In 2018, Diageo repositioned the brand with the bottlings being less pricy. There was a 16 year old bottling in 1992. This is a new edition. 100% Sherry cask maturation.
