Michael Jackson
90- Nose
- Light, fresh, almond-blossom. Hard butterscotch. Nutty. A hint of grassy peatiness.
- Palate
- Slowly reveals white chocolate flavours. Fondant-like, peppermint. Then spicy, herbal notes.
- Finish
- Restrained. Lightly gingery. Warming.
- Comment
- A playful whisky for one of such maturity. Starting very sweetly, but reluctant to reveal its secrets. Give it time to reveal its complexity.
Dave Broom
82- Nose
- Intense, perfumed almost sharp nose with lemon zest, fresh flowers, cereal/Shredded Wheat, light vanilla, pine forest/resin and a touch of candlewax.
- Palate
- Light and quite acidic. There's some vanilla mid-palate but overall crisp, penetrating and zesty.
- Finish
- The lemon notes stay with it all the way.
- Comment
- Vibrant but not quite balanced between the sharp citrus notes, wood and fruit.
