Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson Nose Light, fresh and very flowery. Palate Fresh dessert apple. Nutty. Cereal-grain. Faint peat. Finish Perfumy. Dry. Refreshing. Comment Crisp. Earthy. After a walk in the forest?

Jim Murray Nose Mildly butyric. Some redeeming honey notes can't quite set the aroma back on track. Palate Incredibly sweet opening and middle, lashings of cane juice to dampen the malt. Finish Some hint of normality as a little vanilla tries to calm things a little by offering some balance. Comment Bizarre. The sweetest Glenturret I've come across and a must for liqueur lovers.
