Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson

Nose
Light, fresh but sweet, appetising, fruity, pear-like.
Palate
Dryish, pear-like, more fruitiness as flavour develops. A dash of water releases a hint of smokiness and some sweet, malty notes.
Finish
Restrained, aromatic.
Comment
Lean, smooth and appetising.

Jim Murray

Nose
Youthful and slightly fat. Quite underripe.
Palate
Fat and full, lots of malt concentrate. Initially sweet then some drier banana notes . Refreshing.
Finish
Some oaky notes.
Comment
Rather simple, but very enjoyable – except for the slightly duff nose.
