Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson

Taster

Nose: Herbal notes, becoming sweeter. Heather honey.

Palate: Blossoms first, then fruit. Apricot, orange, raspberry, strawberry.

Finish: Long and lingering, with echoes of all those flowers and fruits.

Comment: One of the most assertive, flavoursome examples of Speyburn I have tasted. A pretty whisky from a pretty distillery.

Score: 7.8

Dave Broom

Taster

Nose: Clean and attractive with a light sweetness undiluted. Water brings out a deeper earthy/grassy note and a hint of violet.

Palate: Clean and again quite sweet. Heather. Gentle but with a subtle weight.

Finish: Medium weight. Sultana cake, orange. Juicy.

Comment: Sweet and gentle.

Score: 7.8
