Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson

Nose
Creamy. Mint humbugs. Mint toffee.
Palate
Sherryish. Nutty. raisins. Vanilla. A suggestion of trifle.
Finish
Quite big. Soothing. Slightly smoky.
Comment
A bit overbalanced by sherry, but nicely rounded by the smoky finish.

Dave Broom

Nose
A little closed without water; hints of grass, crystallised fruits and butter toffee. Water brings a note of dry cracker which mellows into juicier aromas.
Palate
Solid rich stuff that stays in the mouth, all polished wood, soft leather, chocolate, black fruits, pipe smoke and balancing crunchiness.
Finish
Lush and fruity slowly crisping up.
Comment
Like a gentleman's club: all leather chairs, cigar smoke and murmured conversations. A beauty.
