Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson

Nose
Mint toffee. Fudge.
Palate
Mint toffees again. Dark fudge. Candied prunes.
Finish
Some astringency. Lots of alcohol. The two seem to round each other into one big punch (of the pugilistic type).
Comment
Ideal for Thanksgiving or Christmas. If you don't like your in-laws or the television, knock yourself out after dinner.

Dave Broom

Nose
Enormous! Darker, sweeter and richer than all the others put together. Marmalade, sugar candy, orange liqeur chocolates. Sultry.
Palate
Sufficient spiciness and structure to balance the huge waves of sweetness. Orange again. Shows complexity.
Finish
Long and sweet. Lingering.
Comment
A sweet mother for ya!
