Tasting notes

Taster Michael Jackson

Nose: Burnt grass.
Palate: Light. Sandy. Peat. Fruit - lots of it. Iron. Plenty of flavour development.
Finish: Long, smoky, warming.
Comment: A promising middleweight. Could be a contender in two or three years.

7.8

Taster Dave Broom

Nose: Dry with notes of heather, fishboxes, cigar ash and dried seaweed.
Palate: Dry malty (kiln-like) with good positive attack.
Finish: Ash like with a peppery lift.
Comment: Eminently drinkable, direct and simple.
