Nose

Pale in colour but, slightly counter intuitively, densely rich in character suggesting this is distillate, not oak, driven. Grows in presence with water, even revealing some camphor.

Palate

Big, burnt and slightly meaty midpalate with, again, more impact than the hue suggests. Oily and dense.

Finish

Clean and surprisingly short.

Comment

A good example of mature Mortlach character without the close attentions of oak.
