Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson

Nose
Very fresh. The most aromatic of the three. Pears. Cress. Pepper.
Palate
Light olive oil. Falls away in the middle. Then develops sweet mustardy notes.
Finish
Grassy, sandy, peppery.
Comment
The most gritty and seaweedy.

Jim Murray

Nose
Amazingly green and young. Grassy and slightly tart. The oak is sweet and relaxed.
Palate
As mouth-watering as it gets: outwardly young at first, sweet and then the spiced oak intensifies.
Finish
Medium length, vanilla rich with an oaky fuzziness at the finale. Also a late barely audible echo of smoke.
Comment
A simple amazingly clean dram that belies its years.
