Chocolate, raisins, damp soil and mulch mark the nose of this independently bottled Mortlach, a beguiling combination that keeps revealing new textures. The palate is equally complex: prunes, black tea, a little spice, caramel. The finish is long and gentle, with a hint of cocoa powder. I found the flavors on the 15-year-old from G&M disappointed muted, but its older sibling turns their volume up a couple of notches and mixes them with perfect balance. One of those whiskies that leaves me with a spring in my step.

This bar has a membership club where twice a month they offer a chosen pour at their cost price. Your price was fair.
$15 USD per pour? They are practically giving this away or I over paid @$225 usd
@PBMichiganWolverine This one wasn’t single cask, but there can’t be many of them that old
I had an Adelphi Mortlach 25 that was amazing. Wondering if it’s sister casks
