Michael Jackson
70- Nose
- Faintly sulphury peat. Burnt grass. Lemon grass.
- Palate
- Syrupy and remarkably lemony.
- Finish
- Sherbert lemons. Sweet red peppers.
- Comment
- Weak in the middle. Lacks roundness.
Jim Murray
85- Nose
- Winey and rich, softly oaked with an almost oily peatiness. Fabulous heathery depth with an almost flower-scented sweetness, this is the kind of malt that would send bees into a frenzy.
- Palate
- Fabulously fat and oily and then a massive wave of intensely sweet malt followed by wave upon wave of the most gentle peat. Thick, intense, uncompromising and chewy.
- Finish
- Long, peaty and intense with heather and oak. Some late cocoa adds further depth.
- Comment
- There is no mention as to whether this is Scapa or Highland Park, but this cannot be anything other than the elder statesman of the two. This is uncompromising, ultra-rich from the old school. A real stunner.
