Mortlach 50 years: a masterpiece full of depth and complexity
This exceptional whisky, distilled on April 19, 1971, matured for over five decades in a refill American Hosgead (barrel no. 2893) and is released in a strictly limited edition of only 60 bottles.
The Mortlach 50 Years comes from a single cask and redefines luxury in whisky. The “Singing Stills” series represents Mortlach's unwavering commitment to boldly pushing the boundaries of whisky making.
Each bottle in this series contains a rare, hand-picked bottling from the past. This whisky reflects the secret of the 2.81 distillation process, known as “The Way”. With an alcohol strength of 47.3% vol., the Mortlach 50 Years promises an incomparable sensory experience. The distillery describes it as a harmonious symphony of sweet and opulently rich flavors, with surprising lively fruity notes, enveloped in a warming veil of spices.
This exquisite balance makes the whiskey a true masterpiece, reflecting the unmistakable depth and complexity of Mortlach.
The price underlines the exclusivity of this whisky: a bottle is being offered for $30,000 (around €27,300), excluding taxes and customs.
The Mortlach 50 Year Old is a highly collectable and exceptional dram, embodying the unique character of the Speyside distillery in its purest form. For whisky lovers and collectors alike, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a piece of whisky history.
