Michael Jackson
85- Nose
- Leafy bonfires in autumn. Pine logs.
- Palate
- Starts sweet and nutty. Development of oily, soothing, smoky flavours.
- Finish
- Firm, gripping, balsamic. Appetising.
- Comment
- Why wasn't this done years ago? More please. Captivating.
Dave Broom
80- Nose
- Straw-like, then immensely smoky; chimney sweep's sack, engine oil. Water calms it down, brings out lentil, sweetness, pine wood and a zestiness.
- Palate
- A fug of smoke. Thankfully there's a sweetness beneath and a bracken-like note to balance.
- Finish
- Smoke and more smoke. Tarry.
- Comment
- Jura's manager Michael Heads worked at Laphroaig. A coincidence? More please!
