About Mannochmore
Born in 1971 near Elgin, sharing a fence with Glenlossie, Mannochmore makes a light, clean Speyside spirit, and one gloriously strange footnote: Loch Dhu, the jet-black whisky of the 1990s that drinkers still argue about to this day. Diageo's.
The Scotch Malt Whisky Society bottles single casks under numeric codes rather than distillery names, so a label reading 64.403 means cask 403 from distillery 64. That distillery is Mannochmore, in Speyside. More on Mannochmore at Wikipedia.
