Can from Tavour. Pours dark ruddy amber (aka mahogany?) with a large beige/tan head. Aroma of bourbon and treacle. Med body plus a little. It's not dry, but misses sticky. Lots of bourbon. Treacle. Oak astringency is present. Very tasty.

Nice light upfront with plenty of spice and bourbon notes throughout with a delish finish.

Bomber from Tavour. Nose is vanilla, prunes, a hint of bourbon, and a slight bubblegum note in the background. Lightly hazy rusty red with a medium, lightly lacing beige head. Flavor is lightly sweet and fruity with a hint of bourbon and tobacco.
