Tasted in Whisky Magazine Issue 8 by Michael Jackson and Doug McIvor.

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
Fresh attack, with a barrel of tar and punches of peat, sulphur and salt. The victim, enjoying being a masochist, is then soothed with beeswax.
Palate
Rich and extremely sweet, then smoky becoming medicinal and eventually seaweedy.
Finish
Pepper, salt, sand.
Comment
What it loses in character it gains in a different dimension of distinctiveness.

Doug McIvor

Nose
Deep fragrant sherry slightly burnt and winey notes, followed by salt and seaweed.
Palate
Lightness subsides to reveal a chewy, a dancingly oily body which resurges before releasing the sooty medicinal saviours.
Finish
Long, smoky, medicinal, smoky, salty, smoky.
Comment
A more lingering, classic Lagavulin with some of the corners knocked off and some subtle depths added.
