Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson

Nose
Fragrantly smoky. Perfumy, very floral. Hessian. Sea air. Astonishingly fresh, delicious, appetising, complex.
Palate
Perfumy start. Hint of flowering currant. Nutty. Layers of dry, black-treacle, maltiness.
Finish
Smooth. Polished stone. Hard, salty, liquorice.
Comment
Not that dark – just tawny. Whisky in its mid teens, I would say, but from superb sherry casks.

Jim Murray

Nose
Fresh, wonderfully clean oloroso clings to the oak and peat to form a wonderful trio.
Palate
Big and chewy with the sherry and the peat in perfect harmony. Perhaps uncomplex and lacking sophistication, but the balance is quite stunning.
Finish
Long with a hint of molasses/liquorice adding to the toasty malt and rumbling smoke.
Comment
Really delightful whisky which suggests youth but offers a faultless peat/sherry combination.
