Description

The first of the Seven Stills of Dufftown, Mortlach was established in 1823 by James Findlater. This 13-year-old single malt is part of Diageo's 2021 Special Releases, themed 'Legends Untold', and is affectionately known as the 'Beast of Dufftown'. Matured in a combination of virgin and refill American oak casks, it presents a darkly robust and magnificently intense character. [3, 18]
