Michael Jackson
85- Nose
- Sweetish. Beeswax. White chocolate. Hint of ginger.
- Palate
- Satiny. Sweeter, more honeyed than most versions, with the characteristic pears-in-cream emerging.
- Finish
- Apple wood flavours and light smokiness in a gently rounded conclusion.
- Comment
- Luxurious, but in a restrained, understated way.
Jim Murray
77- Nose
- "Quality Street" dark chocolate sweet with soft lemon inside with kumquats and nuts.
- Palate
- Delicate malt notes followed by a prickly spice and then a menthol backwash revealing great age.
- Finish
- Simple and clean. Vanilla at first and then bourbon-style oak notes.
- Comment
- Rarely does Glenfiddich pass 21 years unscathed by time, but this has done much better than most.
