Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson

Nose
Restrained. Fruity. Strawberries.
Palate
Custard. Crème anglais. Vanilla. Cream toffee.
Finish
Light. Dusty. Cinnamon. Balancing dryness.
Comment
Shy. Diffident. But with its own delicacy.

Dave Broom

Nose
Toasted, caramelised. Black banana, spices. Rich, soft and liquorous. Candied fruits and a hint of fresh mushroom. Delicious.
Palate
Good balance between sweet, spicy and bitter (cherry) notes. Menthol/basil/anise.
Finish
Banana chips. Cocoa.
Comment
Go easy on the bitters when making an old fashioned. A good solid package.
