Mac-Talla Morrison Mara Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky

As much Islay spirit as one can get in one sip.

You know we love a good heritage story, especially if it’s about one of Scotland’s oldest Whisky families. Spanning through generations of Whisky brokers, blenders, bottlers and distillers, this one takes place on the island of Islay. William Walker worked with Islay distillers in the early 20th century and eventually moved to the island. Stanley P. Morrison started working as a trainee Whisky broker in Walker’s company and married his daughter Elizabeth. Besides opening up his own brokerage, Stanley also bought Bowmore, Islay’s oldest distillery. Then, under W. Brian Morrison, Morrison Bowmore became a global brand and it was eventually purchased by Suntory. Today, it’s Jamie and Brian Morrison that own and head Morrison Scotch Whisky Distillers that produce several high-end brands. With Mac-Talla, you can travel across the island and taste the great Islay depth of flavors.

Mac-Talla Mara is what happens when two worlds collide on the shores of Islay. The worlds of wild fiery sea and the unforgiving land, that is, which is so very Islay. Aged in American oak, the result is powerful and smoky with smoked barbecue meat and charred oak. Non-chill filtered and with no coloring, this superb bottling will be adored by those with adventurous palates. It won Silver at the International Spirits Challenge in 2021 and 95 points at the 2021 IWSC.
