A riff on the classic 20th Century based on Black Tears spiced rum and so named due to the Black Death reaping its havoc in the 14th Century.

We enjoyed this. To our taste it is sweeter than the 20th Century, despite them being given the same rating. But maybe there's not much in it.

You can riff on the spiced rum / aromatised wine combo. Complex and well balanced
