Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson

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

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.
