Tasted in Whisky Magazine Issue 18 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
Earthy, nutty, sherry.
Palate
Rich, big. Orange toffee. Lively.
Finish
Long, peppery, spicy. All spice.
Comment
With its distinctly reddish chestnut colour, this is clearly well sherried. An uncomplicated, robust, Macallan. Simply delicious.

Dave Broom

Nose
A little slick undiluted: apple, resin and orange. Water brings out rubber, fruits, nuts, orange peel and treacle. Autumnal.
Palate
Slightly slick sweet note. Youth and high alcohol combined makes it a pretty lively mouthful.
Finish
Lemon balm, pepper and sherry notes, then alcohol heat. After the fires die there’s dry wood, liquorice and soot.
Comment
Fiery. Alcohol dominates too much for me.
