The "highball" style is not condusive to retaining the finer points of the Aroma. A proper "glass" with the correct shape, with a full serving does retain the nuances longer. It would great to have 6 or 8 oz to judge from a tulip glass, but that just isn't going to happen. Since taste is 90%+ olfactory is is ridiculous to discount the aroma in judging. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ***** Important Subscriber Information ***** To post a message to JudgeNet, send it to judge`at`synchro.com.
