Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson

Nose
Big. Very perfumy. Incense, sandalwood. Malt and vanilla.
Palate
Very assertive. Intense. Sugary. Nutty. Perfumy. Lots of depth.
Finish
Powerful. Very spicy indeed. Peppery. Gunpowder tea.
Comment
This little-known malt almost always surprises me with its robust flavours.

Jim Murray

Nose
A feather-light, deft aroma boasting a subtle but curious guava fruitiness.
Palate
A composed and delicious maltiness gains hold for the most intense of crescendos. The climax is almost erotic.
Finish
A long, oak-rich afterglow.
Comment
Do whiskies get any sexier than this? An essay in balance and complexity for its age that teases and tantalises the taste buds mercilessly. Outstanding: truly awesome!!
