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
Fragrant. Fruity. Leafy. Herbal. Peppery. Charred oak.
Palate
Nutty. Lightly toffeeish. Minty. Spicey. Dried fruits. Melon dusted with ginger.
Finish
Lively, refreshing.
Comment
A trifle sophisticated for my tastes, but a very fine rye whiskey.

Dave Broom

Nose
Mature and rich: caramel, dried fruit, maraschino, vin santo, coffee grounds, tobacco with allspice, cinnamon and lemon. A little woody?
Palate
Round and rich to start, then spicy rye takes over. Muscular stuff, though a little tannic, making it slightly bitter rather than sour.
Finish
Earth, red fruit, coconut.
Comment
Robust, extra mature stuff but maybe the wood has the upper hand.
