Michael Jackson
80- Nose
- Oak, cedar, spearmint.
- Palate
- Cypress. Sweet leaves. Fruity, winey, oaky.
- Finish
- Hint of peat. Powerful. Slightly woody.
- Comment
- Any whisky-lover would be glad of the chance to taste this, even if it is on the woody side.
Dave Broom
75- Nose
- Fat and very sherried: walnut, treacle toffee, sticky toffee pudding, raisin and a strangely vegetal note.
- Palate
- Full-on sherry. The wood seems to have taken charge, giving it a slight astringency.
- Finish
- Long. Walnut bread. Dry.
- Comment
- Well made, but there's just too much sherry character which diminishes any complexity. A shame for the spirit which seems very good.
