Michael Jackson
80- Nose
- Leafy. Green. Slightly spirity.
- Palate
- Nutty. Chewy. Mint humbugs.
- Finish
- Minty. Fragrant. Smoky oaky.
- Comment
- Enjoyable, with an appropriate touch of earthy rawness, but not as statuesque as this elegant whisky can be.
Dave Broom
85- Nose
- Typical Mortlach meatiness with soft ripe banana, bourbon creams, burnt toffee and smoke. In time a sulphury note and some mustiness.
- Palate
- Starts lightly honeyed then deepens into those roasting tin/meat reduction flavours with a peaty drive. Wood is slightly abrasive.
- Finish
- Hot, chewy then smoke.
- Comment
- Considerably less concentrated than other Mortlachs on the market.
