Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson

Nose
Flowering currant. Herbal. Briar-like.
Palate
Smooth. Starts sweet and buttery. Crème brûlée? Then lemon-zest. Lemon-pith dryness.
Finish
Slightly clovey, warming. Soothing. Long and buttery.
Comment
Not as smoky and char-like as I remember. Very enjoyable, but less obviously Tennessean.

Dave Broom

Nose
Spicy yet soft, like apple pie, lemon cakes, honey with cloves, geraniums. Light twang of rye.
Palate
Mid-weight. As the nose suggests a spicy, complex, chewy number that's fragrant/floral with apple, lime blossom, ginger/cinnamon, tobacco.
Finish
Very clean with a nice touch of apple pie crust.
Comment
A Doc Watson of a whiskey, mild-mannered but full of tricks. Please UDV, start pushing it!
