Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson

Nose
Has to be coaxed out, but eventually ripe red apples, followed by gentle red fruit tartness.
Palate
Assaults the palate. Creamy but bitter. Everton mints. Sweeter with water. Popcorn?
Finish
Oily, alcoholic, with fennel or even aniseed notes. Slightly phenolic with water.
Comment
A reticent nose is completely eclipsed by a huge but uncomplicated palate. Benefits greatly from water.

Arthur Motley

Nose
Fruity, with apples and fresh peaches. Something vaguely minty, like Mojo sweets or mint toffees. Grassy, with vanilla in the background too.
Palate
Was expecting more sweetness, but there is a balancing bitterness along with the toffee, mint and grass.
Finish
Brown toast and biscuits.
Comment
A typical and classic aged Speyside, which still has balance between spirit and wood.
