Michael Jackson
82- Nose
- Creamy. Hint of ground almonds.
- Palate
- Medium to full body. Firm, smooth. Apples and pears, freshly peeled and cut. Fruit salad.
- Finish
- Quick touch of caramel dryness. Oranges in caramel.
- Comment
- More mature than its 10 years would suggest. Fruitier than the conventional distillery bottlings. Refreshing. Like sorbet between courses.
Dave Broom
70- Nose
- An interesting nose: red fruits, (redcurrant, raspberry) then sultana and other dried fruit, struck matches, rubber, mushroom, oak.
- Palate
- Sweet and malty to start. Cherry and sultana cake with sloe, black fruits and raisin.
- Finish
- A little hard.
- Comment
- The nose suggests this was in sherry before being in Port. Has Glenrothes character but a bit dry.
