Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson

Taster

Nose: Sherry. Christmas cake. Some of the dried fruit has burned in the oven.

Palate: Malty. Buttery. Aslice of Wensleydale cheese. On top of the cake.

Finish: Slightly woody bitterness. Late saltiness.

Comment: Very satisfying flavours.

Score: 8.5

Dave Broom

Taster

Nose: Late autumn. Dry oak, firm and quite earthy with rooty/smouldering peat calf. Tweed. Has good depth and a slightly obscured sweetness. Seems old.

Palate: A peaty start, then the smoke lifts and allows some honey and fudge in along with old dried peels. Becomes progressively oaky.

Finish: A bit tannic.

Comment: Seems like a very old whisky with strange exotic flavours.

Score: 8
