Review and Tasting

Sampled on 24/12/2014

Appearance:

(sample best before 10/Oct/16) Clear, golden amber with very thin white head.

Aroma:

High alcohol content is evident with flavours of dried fruit and raisin bread.

Taste:

White bread crust, whisky like spirit notes and light spice.

Aftertaste:

Bready and lightly spiced. Overall: Deceptively easy to drink considering the high alc./vol.
