Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson

Nose
Grassy, leafy. Herbal. Hint of charcoal. Dry.
Palate
Firm, silky, oily. Some vanilla-pod. Cereal-grain flavours.
Finish
Garden mint. Very late sweetness.
Comment
Pleasant, light. For sociable drinking.

Jim Murray

Nose
Very sweet and clean aged malt.
Palate
Light but intensely malty with a gathering of oaky spice. Excellent sweetness.
Finish
Lingering oak helps the malt keep an impressive shape on the palate.
Comment
By no means complex but not a single wayward note, either. Perhaps too one dimensional for some, this expression further proves what an excellent malt Cooley produces.
