Tasting Notes

Dave Broom

Taster

Nose: A lifted, perfumed, slightly floral nose. Intense. Lemon sherbet.

Palate: Very light and sweet all the way. Like drinking a meadow. All very delicate and almost fragile. A sweet, pure, lemon-like quality.

Finish: Sweet.

Comment: Ethereal. It seems to fill the mouth with perfume.

Score: 7.8

Michael Jackson

Taster

Nose: Dryish, floral, camomile, buttercups. Typical Rosebank.

Palate: Lightly creamy. A nectar of flower petals. A love potion from a Shakespeare play.

Finish: Drier again. Herbal. Tickling. Arousing, appetising.

Comment: A good example. Such a love potion, from a distillery that no one loved enough to keep alive.

Score: 8.3
