Tasting notes

Taster Michael Jackson

Nose: Coconut oil.
Palate: Marshmallow maltiness. Nutty. Condensed mllk. Cinder toffee.
Finish: Gentle, long, warming. Some soft, restrained, peaty notes.
Comment: More rounded, and longer, than the 1972.

8.5

Taster Dave Broom

Nose: Clean, oaky and nutty (acorn/hazelnut/ground almond). Behind that there's soft creamy fruits, nutmeg, orange, cereal, juniper and dried grass. Very attractive.
Palate: Sweet nut to start. Well balanced with a fine-boned structure and a soft, fruity mid palate.
Finish: Lightly spiced.
Comment: Round, soft and gentle. A charmer.
