Tasting notes
Taster   Dave Broom
Nose: Soft, rich, juicy: apricot, dried fruits, orange, butterscotch, hazelnut butter. Water brings out sherry, becoming chocolate and bourbon biscuit.
Palate: A luscious, oily sweetness with a crisp solidity on the palate, then a burst of dried fruits, spices and citrus fruits.
Finish: Rich, soft honeyed.
Comment: I could drink this all day. A classic Irish whiskey.

Taster   Michael Jackson
Nose: Fresh, clean linen. Alder. Bath oil.
Palate: Firm. Oiled wood. Out of the sauna to a cup of tea. Quite strong flavours. Aromatic and refreshing.
Finish: Gunpowder tea. A minor explosion.
Comment: Robustly sexy. I always enjoy Jameson, but I really relished coming to grips with this one.
