375ml bottle at home, sourced from The Grove, Huddersfield. Pours very dark brown, almost black, with hardly any head. Aroma: fruit cake, raisins, dates, whisky, figs. Taste: moderate to heavy sweet, dried fruits, raisins, soym booze infused fruit cake, slight oxidisation. Remarkably thin bodied for the ABV, with minimal carbonation. Sweet, boozy finish.

Bottle at a tasting. Mostly sweetish and malty, caramel and chocolate notes, slightly woody. Another one of the bunch, which survived the prolonged aging in a pretty good shape. Enjoyed!

Dark mahogany color, small head. Caramel head, with some oxidisation. Food body, malt and caramel flavor, but too much alcohol; strong bitterness; a bit nutty; moderate sweetness.
