Tasted in Whisky Magazine Issue 29 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
Perfumy. Herbal. Vegetal.
Palate
Starts softly and sweetly, then explodes with flavours. Camomile, lemon grass, anis, fennel. Very spicy.
Finish
Very dry. Intense.
Comment
This is how Lowlanders used to be: drier, more herbal, more complex. Buy now, while stocks last.

Dave Broom

Nose
Touches of tobacco, waxed floors, hessian, then brazil nut, cooked fruit and tinned peach. Mature.
Palate
Sweet, rounded, mixing a silky feel with light fruits, flowers and some fresh nuttiness. It hits a perfect balance between delicacy and substance.
Finish
A hint of smoke.
Comment
You don't have to have masses of peat or sherry to make a malt interesting. The best of these Lowlanders show that. Try them!
