Mortlach 14 Year Old 1998 Dimensions Duncan Taylor

Mortlach 1990, 22 YO (AD Rattray)

from a friend Nose: Some oxidative sherry and light red fruit notes but it's all pretty soft and subtle strawberry, jammy baked goods. Vanilla and chocolate malt. A slightly salty note as well.

Some yeast and even something new...
