Tasted in Whisky Magazine Issue 34 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
Smoky. Treacle toffee.
Palate
Chewy. Fruity. Cherries. Chocolatey.
Finish
Bitter chocolate. Concentrated. Intense.
Comment
I would love this whisky if it had a little less wood. I want to love it anyway, but in the end the wood defeats me.

Dave Broom

Nose
Powerful intense and resinous: treacle, raspberry, coffee. Light smoke giving a burnt note. Gutsy European oak in spades.
Palate
Rich and mouthfilling, reminiscent of Brandy de Jerez: stewed plum, leather, PX, burnt raisins. Dry and densely wooded.
Finish
Fruit cake.
Comment
A fine example of European oak in action.
