Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson

Nose
Aromatic. Berry-fruits. Cherries. Raisins, quite emphatically so.
Palate
Smooth, clean, entrance. Becoming almondy, with suggestions of bitter chocolate and rum.
Finish
Soothing, warming, long.
Comment
The fruitiest of the Bourbons. After dinner?

Dave Broom

Nose
Assertive maltiness with cooked apple, sweet hay and an intense fragrant/perfumed lift and then a dry sugared almond nuttiness. Delicate but seductive.
Palate
A sweet, perfumed start then that dry malt/nut cuts through to balance well. Some smoke.
Finish
Dry, hay like. Crisp malt.
Comment
A gorgeous refreshing summery glass.
