I've been meaning to try Mortlach for some time.... this Gordon and Macphail 15 yo is outstanding, vanilla, fruit and light oak on the nose then the most delightful truffle-oil arrival, delicately smooth sherry fruitiness and light oak and hint of ginger finish.. I found myself cradling the glass without realizing it... like a long lost friend...

I agree this is a great bottling, very rich with good balance of sweet ana savoury. A real treat...

I am looking forward to exploring this range further: Both The Signatory 19 yo at 46% and 57%/cask strength look interesting and are available as does the 16yo flora and fauna offering. I also tried a 15yo 'Black Watch' minature, again a distinctive and unique flavor never seen this before.. Am going to keep a spare bottle of this G&M 15yo stashed away for the future. Any more suggestions for this brand would be most welcome.

Absolute gem it is! I bought a bottle at Whisky Exchange while on a trip in London in 2007 for The Tour de France and I can't wait for the moment I can get my hands on another bottle.

halfway through my second bottle of this...excellent rich quality as expected but this bottle offers hints of tobacco and walnuts.. will be buying the G&M 21yo soon

If you can, grab a bottle of the 21 yo from the same G&M stable.... just did so over Christmas, Whisky heaven...

Gentlemen. Your glowing reviews inspired me to pick up a bottle. The LCBO in Ontario, Canada has brought in a few bottles and it would appear I'm one of the lucky ones to get one. Thanks for the notes, and I look forward to opening it soon.
