Shared 500 ml bottle, vintage 2014, at Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV is 14%. Dark brown colour, no head, low carbonation. Intense oaky aroma, notes of molasses too. Extremely sweet and rich flavour, notes of oak, vanilla, caramel, raisins and dark dried fruits.

Holy crap, rum, burnt dark sugar, caramel sauce, red wine. Bliss.

Side by side with the 2013. Massive difference, this was clearly younger. Less smooth, more pronounced flavours. Wood, slight rum, but of course mostly massively oversweet. Like this more than the Fumé ones.

Slodkie, cukrowe, rodzynkowe, sliwkowe, srednio zlozone, niezo alkoholowe. Ale pyszka duza. Na lezak na chwile
