Tasting notes

Taster Michael Jackson

Nose: Fry's Turkish Delight.
Palate: Bakewell tart.
Finish: Belgian raspberry beer.
Comment: Somewhere in the mid palate, there was a momentary hint of malt whisky. I don't know how that found its way into this obscure liqueur from Heaven.

7.3

Taster Dave Broom

Nose: An alarming colour like an angry sunset. Red fruits, rosehip syrup with crisp oak behind. Cooked fruits and dusty/cereal. Splits with water into edgy green spirit with a layer of jam on top.
Palate: Numb to begin with. Quite liquorous and sweet with a light cherry character.
Finish: Dry.
Comment: The feeling here is that the finish is being used to cover something up. It hasn't worked.
