These casks were filled on 25 May 2026 into 2nd Fill Sherry Hogsheads at a filling strength of 63.5% ABV. Mortlach`s rich, full-bodied spirit is exceptionally well suited to sherry maturation, allowing the whisky to develop layers of dried fruit, dark chocolate, roasted nuts and warming spice whilst retaining the distillery`s signature weight and savoury complexity. A second-fill sherry cask provides a more balanced maturation than a fresh sherry cask, allowing the distillery character to remain at the forefront while gradually building elegance and depth over time. With approximately 229 to 248 bulk litres remaining in each cask, these represent an attractive opportunity to acquire young spirit from one of Speyside`s most respected names at the very start of its maturation journey.

A Classic Speyside Malt
Located in Dufftown, at the heart of Speyside, Mortlach was the first legal distillery built in the area when it was founded in 1823. Mortlach has long been known for innovation and quality, distillery manager Alexander Cowie pioneered an unusual 2.81 times distillation over the standard double distillation technique which many say accounts for the bold, concentrated and spicy style that made Mortlach famous.
Distillery bottlings used to be rare, with the vast majority of the production going into Diageo's Johnnie Walker blends, but a recent rebrand and a relaunch has made a number of different age statements available to lovers of this wonderful Speysider. The Mortlach team have a preference for active Sherry casks when it comes to maturation, to match the full flavour of the spirit. A modern classic, the style would appeal to fans of Glen Grant, Macallan and Glenfarclas.
