Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson

Nose
Gentle sea fragrance. Very appetising.
Palate
Very delicate and teasing. Lightly toasty. Cinnamon toast. Faintly rhubarby fruitiness and wineyness, tinge of sourish acidity.
Finish
Very salty.
Comment
The light saltiness in a coastal whisky and near-coastal sherry make this a delight.

Jim Murray

Nose
Crisp and dry with an enticing hint of smoke. This sherry is wonderfully delicate.
Palate
Clean and dry with complex spices. Brilliantly balanced.
Finish
Long oaky finale that lingers over the fino influence.
Comment
Outstanding stuff from Glenmorangie, and for my money their most delicate expression yet.
