77
- Nose
- Fish market, light smoke and flowers. Weetabix and bourbon biscuits. Very intriguing.
- Palate
- The chocolate hit is immediate. Explosive smoke ignites in the middle. Deep and quite rugged. Well put together.
- Finish
- Long, gently smoky.
- Comment
- Water smooths it down, but the rugged edge is what makes this a winner.
67
- Nose
- Grubby and leathery initially, with a mushy old orange and a bit of woodsmoke. With water a bit of soapiness came up.
- Palate
- Woodsmoke to the fore, with some baked apple.
- Finish
- A little burnt plastic.
- Comment
- Some off-notes which I really didn't like, although the smokescreen saved it.
