Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson

Taster

Nose: Perfumy. A suggestion of phenol. Somewhere between mothballs and tar-like peat.

Palate: Surprisingly rich. Sweetish. Emphatic sugared almonds. Hazelnuts.

Finish: Pistachios this time? Nutty dryness rounds out the palate. Very soothing and warming.

Comment: Confusing aroma, but otherwise the most enjoyable Millburn I have tasted.

Score: 7.5

Dave Broom

Taster

Nose: Intense and malty, mixing smoke, cake mix and coconut. Water dries it: biscuity, toasted wood, soot.

Palate: Surprisingly sweet to start. Dry but slightly woolly texture. Biscuity.

Finish: Smoke, hay, dry.

Comment: Nice but could do with more in the middle.

Score: 7.5
