Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson

Taster

Nose: Perfumy, lemony, clean, crisp.

Palate: Hint of soft, dusty, lemon, then lots of typical Glenmorangie spiciness.

Finish: Hint of icing sugar, then very light and dry. Slightly weak.

Comment: Crisp, but not as characterful as might be hoped.

Score: 8

Jim Murray

Taster

Nose: Sweet and thin, sugary; subtle smoke and grassy malt.

Palate: At once malty and spicy with an immediate powerful oak arrival. Very sweet throughout.

Finish: More brown sugary, custardy sweetness. An oaky thrust adds a welcome dryness.

Comment: One of the sweetest Glenmorangies of all time.

Score: 7.5
