Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson Nose Fresh. Briney. Lemony. Palate Creamy porridge with salt. Then pancakes with sugar and lemon juice. Finish Sherbet lemons. Comment Astonishingly citric.

Dave Broom Nose Complex. Coconut oil, oak, wood, basil, dried orange skin, hint of smoke. With water, sultana, butter and a singed note. Palate Smoke again. Everything quite concentrated then leaps into life, broadening and coating the palate. Builds in complexity, then spice. Finish Tangerine and toast. Comment Contemplative.
