Tasted in Whisky Magazine Issue 8 by Michael Jackson and Doug McIvor.

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
Scented. Beeswax.
Palate
Delicate orange-blossom. restrained fruitiness: sweet oranges, cherries, port.
Finish
Flowery balancing dryness. Warming. Soothing.
Comment
Connoisseurs might miss the austerity of the original-or enjoy the added layer of fruity, winey, sweetness.

Doug McIvor

Nose
Promising, delicate orangey spiciness, fruity, toffeeish backdrop with subtle hints of madeira wine.
Palate
Full caramel and coffee textures emerge from initial floral and spicy, prickling characters. Lingering until the gentle sweetness yields to reveal more coffee, crème brûlée and soft peat.
Finish
Smooth, smoky and chocolatey. Very dry at the death.
Comment
For coffee, cigar and chocolate lovers.
