1995 Mortlach 18Yr

The Meaty Mortlach

WHISKY TASTING

San Unfiltered Erasani

6/15/2024

Color: Pale Gold

Price: $$

Nose: The glass jumps of Citrus, a little hint of Mint, Malty, more of that lemon peel, Pepper, Pineapple, Pears, Ripe Mango. Overall beautiful Nose. Hope some of that come on to the glass too!!

Palate: Lemon, Lime, the Initial citrus burst continues, oily, peppery, some of the nose continues on to the palate, spice, cinnamon, cereal, full bodied meaty Mortlach

Finish: Long, ends in the spice, oily finish, the oak lingers too, but not very complex. Feeling monotonous at this point

Final Thoughts:
Good Summer Whisky, High ABV expression for Duncan Taylor Dimensions, Had some high hopes on this one, but feels like it fell short, not very complex, it was developing, it was the same taste sip over sip, does not look like there was a lot of wood influence here, most likely heavily reused bourbon barrels

Score: 83/100
