A high-aged Mortlach jointly selected by Hong Kong bar Abyss, Osaka bar Bar Aiba, Taiwan's IB Aqua Vitae, and Tokyo specialist Shinanoya.

The label design pays homage to the 'Bible' series, featuring a snake motif to represent this masterpiece released in the Year of the Snake. Mortlach is also a distillery frequently featured in the Bible series. This deeply colored Mortlach is surprisingly balanced, lacking overpowering flavors, showcasing an old-school style predating the 1990s.
