The Mortlach Midnight Dusk Special Release 2024
A captivating single malt that reveals an elegant, youthful side of Mortlach. Bottled at a robust 57.5% ABV, this whisky avoids Mortlach’s signature dark intensity, instead offering a vibrant, decadent character with layers of complexity.
Aged in refill and ex-bourbon American oak casks, it receives a remarkable finish in Ramandolo white wine and Sangiovese red wine barrels. This double wine cask influence adds a luscious sweetness and depth to the whisky’s profile.
The nose greets you with aromas of ripe berries, honeyed florals, and subtle oak. On the palate, Midnight Dusk unfolds with notes of creamy vanilla, red fruit compote, and hints of citrus zest, all balanced by a light spice. The finish is smooth and lingering, with a whisper of oak and fruity elegance.
As part of the 2024 Special Releases, Mortlach Midnight Dusk is a superb choice for an aperitif or as a highlight in any whisky collection. Enjoy it neat or with a splash of water to unlock its intricate layers.
