Tasting notes
Taster   Michael Jackson
Nose: Floral. Camomile. Honey. Herbal tea.
Palate: Fruity, morello cherries. Fresh, woody, rooty, liquorice?
Finish: Spicy dryness.
Comment: Beautifully full flavoured whisky. Manages to be both elegant and robustly expressive. Very appetising.
8.3
Taster   Dave Broom
Nose: A light, malty spirit. Almost frothy with some vanilla, Ovaltine and US oak. Hot without water.
Palate: Sweet and gentle, but you need water to reduce the edge, then lose character.
Finish: A bit flat.
Comment: Needs a bit more in the middle.
