Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson Nose Fresh oak or even cedar. Box of chocolates. Palate Smooth. Sweet but not cloying. Impeccably clean, but full of flavour. Fudge. White chocolate. Deep. Long. Finish Crisp. Brandy-snaps. Ginger cookies. Comment With dessert, or after dinner. A lovely, soothing, whiskey.

Dave Broom Nose Big and honeyed. Bitter chocolate, wet leather, walnut cold tea, tobacco, maple syrup. Palate Sweetly robust: baked banana, overripe honeyed fruit with a praline/hickory crunch. Finish Long and thick. Comment Big soft and gentle, but too sweet for me.
