(Linlithgow distillery, now closed, is more commonly known as St. Magdalene.) The initial nosings find soft scents of sweet malt, almonds and olives; aeration adds aromas of saddle leather and pork sausage. At palate entry toasted, toffee-like flavors override the mammoth alcohol; at midpalate the abv jumps in but a pleasant weed/grass-like taste extinguishes the heat. Finish includes flavors of fudge, dried figs and sultanas. P.P.

What Is Blind Tasting?

All tastings reported in the Buying Guide are performed blind. Typically, products are tasted in peer-group flights of from 5-8 samples. Reviewers may know general information about a flight to provide context—vintage, variety or appellation—but never the producer or retail price of any given selection. When possible, products considered flawed or uncustomary are retasted.
