Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson Nose Fresh. Sea air. Palate Smooth, sweet, slightly syrupy. Lovely balance of sweet creaminess and herbal notes. Finish Appetisingly spicy. Clean hit of salt. Comment If you like the classic flavours of the 10 Years Old but find it a bit light, this range-filler is for you.

Jim Murray Nose Fruitier with dense grapey tones: malty yet nothing like as complex as the 10 Years Old. Palate A silky feel followed by a delicious explosion of peppery notes around the palate. Clean fruit, including the juiciest of plums, balance nicely. Finish Remains warm and lingering with more emphasis on simple vanilla and malt. Comment Rich by Glenmorangie standards and very warming.
