Michael Jackson
85- Nose
- Smoky. Peaty. Leafy. Minty. Menthol.
- Palate
- Good malt background. Piney. Intense. Complex.
- Finish
- Dry, resiny.
- Comment
- A whole sequence of flavours emerges in this vintage. These are flavours I have found before in Nikka whiskies, but they have not been especially evident elsewhere in this flight.
Dave Broom
77- Nose
- Good rich, toffeed maltiness. Water brings out American oak and lemon, mink oil/dubbin, dry grass and cold tea. Becomes crisp and nutty.
- Palate
- Rounded, medium-sweet start. Crisper and nuttier later with smoke and light toasted oakiness on the back palate. Nice weight.
- Finish
- Dries suddenly leaving a little bitterness.
- Comment
- A sweet cask and a firm spirit more or less in harmony.
