Michael Jackson
77- Nose
- Rosebank's typical camomile.
- Palate
- Lightly creamy. Flowery sweetness.
- Finish
- Mint imperials.
- Comment
- Relatively young, but beginning to weary nonetheless. Perhaps this tiredness is caused by worry about the future. A feminine whisky that has lost the first bloom of youth. Snatch a kiss while you can.
Dave Broom
77- Nose
- Fragrant. Light fruits, fresh pear, creamy and zingy-ginger beer? There's smoke and a hint of green, sappy sticks.
- Palate
- It rolls nicely in the mouth. Elegant, with little spikes of flavour: nut, grass and flowers laid on top. Light and delicate. Soft, clean and quite floral.
- Finish
- It all zips into life at the end.
- Comment
- This remains a cracking dram. Shame the distillery is being bulldozed. No, make that a disgrace.
