Tasting Notes

Colour

amber

air Nose

aaah, old style sherry maturing, and with flying colours. Orange liqueur, figs, dates, kumquats and toasted brioche and toffee. Then a little more malt (Ovaltine), raspberry jam and chocolate but it never becomes winy or prune-y. Beautiful nose, almost a blast from the past

restaurant Palate

hey-hey, no drop of style or quality here even if there's much more bitter chocolate and cinnamon that make it a tad drying. Many raisins (sultanas, Corinthians), a little tobacco and molasses, heavy honey (chestnut), and then touches of cloves and pepper. Almost perfect

timer Finish

quite long, on more raisins and honey
