Michael Jackson
90- Nose
- Scented. Beeswax.
- Palate
- Delicate orange-blossom. restrained fruitiness: sweet oranges, cherries, port.
- Finish
- Flowery balancing dryness. Warming. Soothing.
- Comment
- Connoisseurs might miss the austerity of the original – or enjoy the added layer of fruity, winey, sweetness.
Doug McIvor
80- Nose
- Promising, delicate orangey spiciness, fruity, toffeeish backdrop with subtle hints of madeira wine.
- Palate
- Full caramel and coffee textures emerge from initial floral and spicy, prickling characters. Lingering until the gentle sweetness yields to reveal more coffee, crème brûlée and soft peat.
- Finish
- Smooth, smoky and chocolatey. Very dry at the death.
- Comment
- For coffee, cigar and chocolate lovers.
