Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson

Nose
Appetising. Fresh, smooth, spicy.
Palate
Smooth. Sweet. Flavours dance on the tongue.
Finish
Just when I had this tagged as being delicate, a big punch with a fist of oak concluded the proceedings.
Comment
Stylish and disarming, but not to be taken lightly. Reminds me of Kentucky’s greatest boxer.

Dave Broom

Nose
Serious, ‘aged’ nose with velvety peach, vanilla, wild herb notes.
Palate
Very soft to start: cinnamon, sugar, butter, honey, then dries.
Finish
Woody.
Comment
A good sipper, but too woody for me.
