Corked bottle, vintage 2011, 6 years old, 11% ABV
Deep dark amber color, a bit opaque. Aroma of ripe apples, Porto, suk spices, light vanilla, caramel in the making; a lot going on here. Sweet, thick, syrupy, with light acidity, strong raisin flavor more than apples, demerara sugar, light astringency in the end. One Ice Cider with low acidity.
This is rich and unique, delicious.

2011 vintage. 200mL bottle, pours a deep dark mahogany. Aroma brings out dark toffee, burnt caramel and caramelized sugar. Flavour is complex as hell, with dark dried fruits, caramel, and brown sugar. So deep and complex. Outstanding.

2011 bottle. Medium brown. Super rich toffeeish sugars, Again on the palate, super rich sugars, dark toffees. Goes sweet into the finish, too, but picks up some nice acidity in the finish.

Bottle - Cooked apple and lots of raisin. Deep dark Amber, the darkest I have seen. Lots of cooked apple, caramel and some prune. Really rich and pleasant. An absolute perfect finish to a night out.
