Tasting Notes

Dave Broom

Taster

Nose: Big and honeyed. Bitter chocolate, wet leather, walnut cold tea, tobacco, maple syrup.

Palate: Sweetly robust: baked banana, overripe honeyed fruit with a praline/hickory crunch.

Finish: Long and thick.

Comment: Big soft and gentle, but too sweet for me.

Score: 7.8

Michael Jackson

Taster

Nose: Fresh oak or even cedar. Box of chocolates.

Palate: Smooth. Sweet but not cloying. Impeccably clean, but full of flavour. Fudge. White chocolate. Deep. Long.

Finish: Crisp. Brandy-snaps. Ginger cookies.

Comment: With dessert, or after dinner. A lovely, soothing, whiskey.

Score: 8.3
