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
Lively. Fruity. Peaty.
Palate
Light, clean, cereal grain maltiness. Very firm and smooth. Developing toastier, nuttier flavours. Orange oil. Some macaroon-like sweetness, too.
Finish
Sweet grass. Smoky fragrance.
Comment
A first-class malt, but I would like a little more structure and style.

Dave Broom

Nose
Lifted and mellow. Good, complex mix of floral, bracken top notes with plenty of spicy oak, malt and sweet fruit.
Palate
A sweet, rounded start with some honey and soft fruit, then it’s given a good kick from the oak: tobacco, hazelnut and a whiff of smoke. Good feel. The oak comes to the fore as it develops.
Finish
Maybe just a little woody.
Comment
A powerful spicy malt.
