House Review
-
Intro:
This is an independent bottling of Mortlach distillate by Faultine - an in house brand for KLWines. It was matured in a first fill sherry cask, and was bottled at cask strength with no coloring or filtration.
-
Nose:
Sweet syrupy and rich - nutty sherry, toffee, wine sweetness, fig, date, stewed fruits.
-
Taste:
Medium mouth feel. Some heat. Sweet fig, date, sulphuric, nice oak. Heat grows over time.
-
Finish:
Long but hot and sulphur forward.
-
Overall:
Nose and palate are good but things go south in the finish. A good price for the stats on this bottle, but I'm not thrilled with how the quality stacks up. I'd save my dollars, personally.
