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.
