Mannochmore Whisky

Mannochmore was built in 1971 as a sister distillery to nearby Glenlossie, primarily to brew light malt for blends. In the 1990s the distillery briefly experimented with Loch Dhu - an almost coal-black whisky coloured with caramel, which was met with both cult status and ridicule. Today Mannochmore lives a quieter life under Diageo, far from the experiment that once made it famous.

  • Mannochmore Signatory Vintage sherry cask whisky bottle
    Item no.: 059763-615-937

    Mannochmore sits quietly behind its sister distillery Glenlossie in Speyside, spending most of its life supplying malt for Diageo blends rather than standing in the spotlight. When it does step out under its own name, it is worth paying attention.

    Expert's Description

    Mannochmore 2012/2024 Signatory Vintage 100 Proof Edition #13 is a Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in a first fill oloroso sherry butt and bottled at 57.1%.

    Signatory Vintage's 100 Proof series gathers single casks from across Scotland, bottled at the old-fashioned strength once known as "100 proof", translating to 57.1% on today's scale. The cask has given this Mannochmore a dark, sherry-driven character that contrasts with the distillery's usually light, floral house style.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    The nose opens with dark chocolate and raisin, chestnut honey and a touch of orange peel, tying the sherry sweetness to the malt's underlying cereal note.

    Palate

    The palate is full-bodied with brown sugar, dried figs and spiced oak, while the cask strength adds a warm, almost peppery bite that holds everything together.

    Finish

    The finish is long and spicy, closing with a last trace of dark marmalade and toasted almond.

About Mannochmore Whisky

Mannochmore is a Speyside distillery from 1971, sister to the nearby Glenlossie. For a newcomer, it's a light, floral, approachable style; for the connoisseur, Mannochmore is inseparable from Loch Dhu - the coal-black, caramel-coloured curiosity from the 1990s, which today trades for high prices among collectors precisely because of its eccentric, short-lived existence.

History & Background

The distillery was built by then-owner DCL (now Diageo) to increase production capacity alongside the neighbouring Glenlossie distillery. Throughout its history, Mannochmore has primarily supplied malt to popular blends such as Haig.

Production & Style

The distillery produces a light, clean malt style well suited to blending, but which also offers a delicate character when released as a single malt.

Signature Style

Light, Clean, Floral
The flavour offers a light, clean character with floral notes and a hint of sweetness.
