About Mortlach

The first legal still in Dufftown, lit in 1823, Mortlach is known simply as the Beast, a dark, meaty, muscular whisky conjured by a fiendish part-triple distillation its makers call 2.81 times and by old worm tubs that will not give up their sulphur. Not a beauty; a force. Diageo's.
