77
- Nose
- Vanilla, fudge, face cream, dry twigs, and some floral character. Slightly hot.
- Palate
- Vanilla, lavender, milk chews and kindling wood.
- Finish
- Vanilla ice cream and a light, fragrant grassiness.
- Comment
- A pretty bundle of US oak, slathered in silky creaminess. Impossible not to like.
77
- Nose
- Sweet luscious and fat. High coconut factor, sun-tan lotion (high UV factor), butterscotch, golden syrup on a hot crumpet. Water brings out a light spiciness. Rum-like.
- Palate
- Very smooth and unctuous. Coconut ice cream, black banana. Becomes drier with crisp oak giving much needed structure. Good length.
- Finish
- Spice, light leather.
- Comment
- Ridiculously over the top. Great!
