Tasting notes

Taster Dave Broom

Nose: Very pale. Floral with some apple blossom, pear, lemon butter icing.
Palate: Needs water. When added there's an immediate puff of peat, then a tingling exciting explosion of freesia, apples, orange blossom.
Finish: Dry.
Comment: Only nine? A child prodigy of Mozartian standards.

8.5

Taster Michael Jackson

Nose: That distinct camomile character of Rosebank.
Palate: Some creaminess, but becomes gritty and peppery. A little more flowery when water is added.
Finish: Astringent.
Comment: The aroma promised much, but the palate is curiously drying. Rosebank was never peaty, and this is too young to be woody, so I don't know the origin of that harshness.
