Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson

Nose
Leafy. Some grassy peat. Hint of phenol.
Palate
Suggestion of charcoal. Some malty sweetness and peat, but thin. Drying on the tongue.
Finish
Medicinal. Eucalyptus.
Comment
Flavours do not combine. Lack roundness.

Jim Murray

Nose
A youthful, grassy clean aroma with dank barley in abundance.
Palate
Fresh and mouth-watering with an intense and delicious barley richness from the very start.
Finish
Slightly spicy with a touch of oak.
Comment
Uncomplicated, attractively fresh.
