Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson Nose Creamy. Spicy. Palate Smooth. Vanilla. Condensed milk. Coconut. Orange. Tropical fruits. Finish Gingery finish. Warming. Comment Slightly less sweet than the last bottling I tasted.

Dave Broom Nose Perfumed, lemon cooked fruits. Fairly lean with (in time) cocoa/coffee cake, winey notes. Whiff of cigar smoke as well. Palate Attractive if slightly (surprisingly) austere. The mid-palate has lovely concentrated jammy fruits alongside some good spicy rye. Finish Softens and begins to mellow. Comment Quite a mouthful which takes no prisoners.
