Tasted in Whisky Magazine Issue 29 by Michael Jackson and Dave Broom.

Whisky Magazine is the perfect complement to the dram in your glass. Every issue brings you fascinating articles on the art, science and romance of the 'water of life', plus page after page of tasting notes.

Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson

Nose
Light, lemony.
Palate
Creamy. Condensed milk. Becoming flowery and drying.
Finish
Surprisingly hot.
Comment
Littlemill has never been a favourite with critics-or blenders-but I have always thought it a good example of a Lowland malt.

Dave Broom

Nose
Sweet and slightly confected, but has depth. Orange squash/opal fruit and almond. In time a note like lead pipe. A bit immature?
Palate
Light and very sweet to start, then a promising creamy maltiness, but a certain hardness remains.
Finish
Fast.
Comment
Seems sweet, but just isn't quite balanced, as if the cask has yet to interact fully with the spirit.
