Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson Nose Perfumy. A suggestion of phenol. Somewhere between mothballs and tar-like peat. Palate Surprisingly rich. Sweetish. Emphatic sugared almonds. Hazelnuts. Finish Pistachios this time? Nutty dryness rounds out the palate. Very soothing and warming. Comment Confusing aroma, but otherwise the most enjoyable Millburn I have tasted.

Dave Broom Nose Intense and malty, mixing smoke, cake mix and coconut. Water dries it: biscuity, toasted wood, soot. Palate Surprisingly sweet to start. Dry but slightly woolly texture. Biscuity. Finish Smoke, hay, dry. Comment Nice but could do with more in the middle.
