77
- Nose
- Very light and scented. Citrus, beeswax, coconut powder, coumarin/herbs/pot pourri. Barely seems anchored.
- Palate
- Fragrant, floral and delicate. Rather fragile and slightly thinner than 16.
- Finish
- Smoke.
- Comment
- A ghost-like dram almost too elusive to grasp.
80
- Nose
- Lots of ripe fruits: banana, kiwi, pink grapefruit and melon. Cutting through this are other notes of grappa, sappy wood, fennel and tomato stalks.
- Palate
- Sweet peach, a little peat and sweet vanilla.
- Finish
- Grapefruit and drying woodiness.
- Comment
- Another nose that produces involuntary smugness.
