Can. Pours a glorious deep ruby, clear, with just a sheen of head. Aroma is complex, lots of dark fruit, like raisins, figs, prune, mingled with lots of caramel and molasses, with underlying intense oak barrel and some whisky. Barrel very noticeable, some vanilla. Big body. Flavour is sweet, some chocolate malt but no roast or intense dark malt profile, caramel. Lots of raisin character, prunes, some hints of cacao, vanilla, oak barrel. Whisky is most dominant in the finish, which also is dominated by more wood, some peat, dry. Really lovely sipper. Frontaal make good choices with regards to the different BA Rhodesians.

Can. Color: Chestnut brown, thin beige head. Aroma: Sweet, dark fruit, caramel, boozy. Taste: Over medium sweet, malty, ripe dark fruit, fudge, sweet raisins, subtle notes of nuts and wood. Clearly present yet not overwhelming boozy Whisky. Moderate to over moderate bitterness. Well balanced, nice complexity. Full body, low carbonation. Sticky mouthfeel.
