Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson Nose Sweetish, creamy, maltiness. Late touch of peat. Palate Clean, sweetish, creamy, marshmallow-like. Finish Lightly dry. Leafy. Grain mustard. Long. Comment Pleasant, though real character emerges only in the finish.

Dave Broom Nose Very light, young, slightly floral with touches of pigskin leather, lemon puffs and vanilla. Palate Very sweet light syrup start, plenty of good grain. Finish Medium sugar candy touch of spirit on the very end. Comment Easy going and light.
