Tasting at Matt’s
Luminescent amber color. The aroma, at first, shows apple pie spices, but later the spices fade, and instead is replaced by some glue, weirdly interesting, and dough. Luscious liquid, apple pie, with dough and spice and everything, and warming feeling.
Excellent.

Golden-brown. The aroma has big, bright apple, cinnamon. On the palate, lots of apple, cinnamon, brown sugar. Nice depth. A touch of acidity late, but just a touch. Very nice, good quality, good complexity. Rich, sticky body. Like brown sugar, butter, cinnamon. Excellent stuff.

375mL bottle, sent from wilco (thanks a lot, Mike), pours a vibrant golden caramel colour. Aroma brings out rich caramel, treacle toffee, and a little cinnamon. Flavour is rich as hell, with a wonderful balance of caramel, treacle toffee, and cinnamon. The cinnamon is incorporated very well with the caramel and treacle. Rich, complex, perfectly sweet and decadent. Phenomenal.

Bottle @ RBBSG, 2014. Thanks 77ships! Orange colour. Very sweet aroma of apple pie, cinnamon, brown sugar and spices. Very complex and sweet in a positive way. Good as a sipper, not to drink a lot of this.

Bouteille 37.5cl @ RBBSG III, courtesy of 77ships. Ambré, doré au verre. Arôme de pomme, tanin rétro agréable présentant de belles effluves épicées de cannelle. Palais est liquoreux, plein de pomme léger doux-sucré sur une pointe aigrelette avec un léger caramélisé de pelure de pomme et chaire. Le côté épicé hivernal est bien placé et vient balancer le tout avec ce petit ’twist’ de cannelle.

375 ml. bottle sampled @ RBBSG III. Personal contribution. Obtained in a trade with tom10101. Clear dark amber. Smell & taste is very thick syrup de Liège, cinnamon, brown sugar, apple pie, vanilla, melted butter, very sweet in the best way possible, thick toffee, caramel, apple roll. Thick syrupy feel to it. Warming, astonishing. Phenomenally good stuff, pure liquid desert.
