Tasted in Whisky Magazine Issue 26 by Michael Jackson and Dave Broom.

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
Poached apricots in crème anglaise. Then dark chocolate pralines, with hazelnuts.
Palate
Gingery. Lively. Creamy. Very sherryish.
Finish
Fragrant smokiness, and oakiness.
Comment
After dinner, I would usually think of a malt, but have long enjoyed the unashamed luxuriousness of this blend. This example seems fractionally less voluptuous than I remember, but my memories may be teasing me.

Dave Broom

Nose
A mellow, softly complex nose, mixing sweet fruits, dried grassy notes, sandalwood, bourbon, biscuits, beech nut and with water a fungal/mushroom note along with cinnamon, vanilla, apple and sultana.
Palate
As smooth as silk, rich and elegant with a huge range of rich flavours and a light nuttiness which counterbalances the soft fruits.
Finish
Spicy, long.
Comment
A stunningly good blend.
