Tasted in Whisky Magazine Issue 8 by Michael Jackson and Doug McIvor.

Whisky Magazine is the perfect complement to the dram in your glass. Every issue brings you fascinating articles on the art, science and romance of the 'water of life', plus page after page of tasting notes.

Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson

Nose
Fragrant. Edible seaweed, sweetish, restrained fruit. Aroma of white, uncut peaches.
Palate
Smooth, scenty. Developing notes of tobacco.
Finish
Sitting in a leather armchair, reading Masefield, before a log fire, listening to the tide with a whiff of brine under the weather-warped door.
Comment
Demonstrably an evocative whisky. Salty and winey, but neither as overt as in the comparable Glenmorangie Fino.

Doug McIvor

Nose
Succulent honeyed traits with a briney background.
Palate
Rich nutty, malty and full-bodied with dark chocolate and spice emerging.
Finish
Very lingering, chocolatey and warming. With a late peaty finesse.
Comment
Much enhanced Oban. Perfect with after coffee and brazils.
