Comments

Having tried some of the more "meaty" Mortlach expressions, this is definately more suited to my palate. Fruit, chocolate, coconut. Very very tasty. I bought this bottle to celebrate the birth of my daughter Emelia and sadly it is nearly all gone. Luckily I have stored 100ml away for me to share with her when she is older. :)
