Tasting Notes of Mortlach 30 Year Old Midnight Malt

Nose:

On the nose, this whisky delivers a mellow prickle that evolves into savory and herbal top notes, resembling pork crackling sprinkled with dry sage. Subtle aromas of black pepper, garden herbs, and sweet oak mingle with a touch of vanilla.

Palate:

The palate is a symphony of flavors, beginning with wine-soaked apples and baking spices. It evolves into rich, fruity notes of Calvados, followed by an intense burst of black pepper. Hints of mint chocolate and dried fruit add to the complexity.

Finish:

The finish is long and sweet, with a deep peppery spiciness. With a splash of water, the whisky softens, and the mint chocolate becomes more pronounced, lingering in the aftertaste.
