Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson

Nose
French polish.
Palate
Metallic. Or is it metal polish? I want to dismiss that idea, but can’t get it out of my head. The palate picks up toward the finish, with some passion fruit and honeyed, cedary notes.
Finish
Quick alcohol warmth.
Comment
Metallic flavour seems dominant, and the rest doesn’t hold together.

Ian Wisniewski

Nose
Toffee apples, sticky toffee pudding with caramel sauce, coconut, macaroons, maltiness.
Palate
Créme caramel sweetness and toffee lead, before the light spicyness of gingerbread, rich dried fruit and a hint of cloves.
Finish
Light and compressed with a subtle sweet-dry balance.
Comment
Individual flavours open up and then group themselves into a neat package, before whispering good-bye.
