About
Mortlach's 2009 MSWD is a robust single malt from Speyside that draws its distinctive character from an intriguing Barbados rum finish. This 12-year-old expression, bottled by Morrison Scotch Whisky Distillers, marries traditional Scottish malt foundations with tropical rum influences in a compelling way. The nose reveals complex layers of barley sugar, citrus, and buttered toast, with hints of cinnamon adding warmth and spice. On the palate, the rum finish emerges subtly alongside brown sugar, apple crumble, and white pepper notes, with oak providing structure. The finish is notably dry and gripping, with black tea and Seville orange notes lingering persistently. This is a whisky for those who appreciate adventurous cask finishes and aren't deterred by a whisky with backbone and presence.
