Michael Jackson
90- Nose
- Minerally. A hint of sulphur.
- Palate
- Quite rich. Nutty, with a suggestion of artichoke. A touch of salt, then a burst of freshly milled pepper.
- Finish
- Volcanic. Reverberating.
- Comment
- Less instantly explosive than the regular 10. The flavours in the 25 are more tightly combined and take longer to unfold. You pays your money...
Dave Broom
90- Nose
- Robust with plenty of scented smoke (burning heather) balanced by soft Dundee cake/singed orange peel aromas.
- Palate
- Full and ripe to start, plenty of mellow fruits (sultana, date, fig) then an explosion of dry smoke. A complex mouthful.
- Finish
- Long, complex, dry peppery heather root
- Comment
- The distillery character sings out. A muscular, smoky yet rounded malt. Superb.
