Tasted in Whisky Magazine Issue 21 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
Straw, grass, lemon-grass.
Palate
Light, oily. Dry. Bamboo-like woodiness. Some vanilla smoothness after a few minutes in the glass. Aromatic. Exotic.
Finish
Grassy again. Hot. Chillies.
Comment
Rather aggressive for a malt that is usually delicate and sweet, but still very distinctive. Will stand softening with a good splash of water.

Dave Broom

Nose
Delicate and summery but with guts. Aromatic nose: lemon, icing sugar, almond slice, vanilla, red fruit and with water basil leaf/anise.
Palate
Light to medium bodied. Floral with a sweetly attractive start but good texture mid-palate.
Finish
Strawberries then dry and malty.
Comment
Delicate yet complex.
