Tasted in Whisky Magazine Issue 28 by Michael Jackson and Martine Nouet.

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
Cedary. Newly sawn wood. Resin. Oil of peppermint.
Palate
Oily. Black chocolate. Bitter.
Finish
Drying. Musty. Woody.
Comment
Of interest to collectors, historians and the likes of me, but this Brechin brew, staunched in 1983, never made a great whisky.

Martine Nouet

Nose
Big and Pungent. Fruit and wood. Cider apple, damson plums, honey. Dark chocolate.
Palate
Sour fruitiness. The spices and biting alcohol is hardly tolerable, even with water. Wood dominates maltiness. Reminiscent of a rye whiskey.
Finish
Robust, warm, biting.
Comment
It's my first taste of North Port so I can't decide if the distillery character has been blurred or not by sherry. Like a bulldozer after an earthquake.
