Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson Nose Richer aromas. Spicier. Appetising. Palate Bigger, softer. Again a suggestion of cherries. Rose-hip tea. Spicy balancing dryness. Finish Smoother, Very long. A fragrant, lightly smoky, hint of peat. Comment Still on the sweet side but dexterously balanced. Beautifully rounded flavours.

Dave Broom Nose Unreduced there's some coconut along with meaty notes. When water is added out come toasted nuts, orange blossom, butter and real sexy richness. Palate A lovely start which builds slowly from digestive biscuit into a soft juicy centre with vanilla, mocha, tobacco and not bracken notes. Finish Juicy and creamy with good weight. Comment If this were a person it would be Salma Hayek.
