Mortlach x Starck L’Evolution

Mortlach x Starck L’Evolution is a groundbreaking collaboration between the “Beast of Dufftown” and renowned French visionary Philippe Starck. This limited-edition release reimagines whisky artistry, combining Mortlach’s intense Speyside spirit with Starck’s futuristic, minimalist design philosophy.

Aged in a unique combination of first-fill Pedro Ximénez/Oloroso seasoned casks and refill American oak, this expression delivers a rich, muscular profile while showcasing surprising finesse. Its striking matte decanter—with a monolithic, architectural presence—embodies evolution in both flavor and form.

Deep amber in the glass, L’Evolution offers a bold nose of dried figs, polished leather, cacao nibs, and roasted coffee, interwoven with meaty umami and spice. On the palate, it’s intensely structured, revealing layers of molasses, black cherries, dark chocolate, wood smoke, and dried herbs. The finish is powerful and lingering, with notes of oak tannins, sherry warmth, and earthy spice that evolve sip by sip.

With only a limited number of bottles available globally, Mortlach x Starck L’Evolution is a must-have for collectors and connoisseurs seeking boundary-pushing craftsmanship.
