Dec 20, 2007 Bottle from supermarket in NZ, poured a dark brown with a reddish hue and a beige bubble head. A rich toffee aroma with a cherry fruit sweetness. A full mouthfeel with a syrupy stewed fruit flavour - cherry and apricots. Becomes more malty and dry through to the finish. Nicely done.

Oct 12, 2007 Bottle from my new local indy. Pours a dark brown with an off white head. Strong sweetness on the nose then leads onto a kind of fruitcake sweetness in the mouth with hints of dark fruits and some caramel. Very nice indeed and hides the 7.6% well.

Sep 2, 2007 Dark mahogany-red with a nice head. The aroma has notes of raisins and dark, ripe fruits. The flavour has notes of caramel, dark fruit, raisins and plum, port wine and the body is quite full. The alcohol is well hidden. In the finish I find caramel and weak hints of licorice.
