Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson Nose Soft, very grassy and linseedy. Palate Remarkably syrupy. Very sweet and spicy. Lemon grass. Finish Lemon sherbet fizzing on the tongue. Comment Deserves points for daring to be so sweet.

Dave Broom Nose Intense, lightly fragrant nose: some grassiness and juicy fruits but this is a prickly character that’s more austere than it initially seems. Palate Gutsy and zesty with an oily crunch mid-palate. Light and straight down the middle of the palate. Finish Zesty, peppery. Little short. Comment Have with Guinness to soften the slightly hard edges.
