Mortlach The Lure of the Blood Moon is a single malt in the Diageo Special Release 2022. It was given a final maturation in a blend of virgin oak, Tawny Port and Red Muscat wine casks.
Mortlach's meaty character meets opulent wine and sweet grape, while the virgin oak adds a spicy dryness.
The nose is savoury, recalling a cassoulet with spicy sausage and pork belly, with grape and red wine that turn more mineral as it develops. The palate is rich and mouth-filling, sweetly fruity with ginger and black pepper. The finish is long, with fruit and pepper, a warming glow and a dry close.
