Michael Jackson
80- Nose
- Assertive, rounded, appetising, smokiness. Some maltiness, reminiscent of Darjeeling tea.
- Palate
- Silky-smooth treacle toffee.
- Finish
- Chewy. Rooty. Anis. Liquorice.
- Comment
- I have always had a quiet fancy for this malt. It has a lot character: demonstrated here in the way it stands up to such heavy sherry.
Dave Broom
60- Nose
- Dates, treacle, leather, fruit cake, smoke and a perfumed note.
- Palate
- That perfumed character runs against the figgy, rich spirit unbalancing the whisky.
- Finish
- Smoky. Dry and slightly tannic.
- Comment
- Robust but the cask is in charge.
