Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson

Nose
Lemony, flowery, honeyed, grassy, peaty.
Palate
Soft, smooth, malty. Lightly creamy. Some good Speyside fruity-flowery flavours.
Finish
Flowery dry.
Comment
Light but pleasant, with some delicacy and complexity.

Dave Broom

Nose
Light gold. Unreduced it shows fruit cake, heather and apricot. With water a strange fizzy quality appears. Sherbet dab, heather-honey and light smoke.
Palate
The fizziness continues on the palate. There are some sherry notes, but oak dominates.
Finish
Oaky and dry.
Comment
No great distinguishing features.

Interested in whisky tasting, why not nose through our Nosing and Tasting booklet online. It is a great guide to get you started with nosing and tasting your whiskies.
