Origin: Scotland
Distillery: Mannochmore
Moscatel finished Mannochmore from Darkness! This single malt spent 13 years maturing, including a finish in one of Darkness' custom-made teeny little octave casks, in this instance, one that previously held lusciously sweet moscatel. The smaller surface area inside the cask ensures greater interaction between spirit and wood, bringing generous layers of jammy fruit and spice alongside the oily malt at its core.
Mannochmore 13 Year Old Moscatel Cask Finish (Darkness) Single Malt Scotch Whisky | 500ML Tasting Notes
Nose: Juicy fresh fruit salad and boiled sweeties, a touch of fudge, and oaken vanilla.
Palate: Sweet layers of berries and jammy stone fruits cushion notes of black peppercorns and a touch of woody spice.
Finish: Nutty, oily malt shines through for the finish, with creamy waves of vanilla ice cream and tangy marmalade.
Distillery Information
The Mannochmore distillery lies just south of Elgin in Morayshire, at the heart of Speyside. The distillery shares not only a site, but also the watersource - the Bardon Burn - with the Glenlossie distillery. However, Mannochmore is considerably larger; the three pairs of stills have a combined total capacity of 3.22 million litres annually. The site asserts a decidedly industrial aesthetic; there are onsite warehouses which boast space for 200,000 casks. Accordingly, the current owners Diageo use the space to store maturing spirit from other distilleries in addition to that of Mannochmore. The site also hosts a dark grains plant, processing draff and pot ale. Equally sizeable, the facility processes 1000 tonnes of dark grains for animal feed every week. The whisky distillery was built in 1971 by Scottish Malt Distillers, later to become a part of Diageo. It was managed by John Haig and Co. It was only comparatively recently - in 1992 - that single malt Scotch whisky was released from Mannochmore; for many years it had been a blending component and was a constituent of Haig blends.
