Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson

Nose
Soft, clean.
Palate
Lightly toffeeish. Sweet. Orangey. Some minty rye notes.
Finish
Gentle. Slight citrus zest.
Comment
More delicate and restrained than I expect from Eagle Rare...distinctly the sweeter of the Bourbons in this tasting.

Dave Broom

Nose
Full-on, rich sweet nose: candy, caramelised oak.
Palate
Big, chewy and sweet with a fresh oily zap on the back palate stopping it from becoming too cloying.
Finish
Long, slightly hot.
Comment
Big and sweet. Scale down the sweet vermouth when making your Manhattan.
