Bottle from the Glen Park Hotel. Appearance - golden copper with a white head that quickly disappearing.. Nose - sweet bread or panetonne. Raisin and cake spice. Taste - raisin, syrup, orange peel and general cakiness. Palate - medium bodied with fairly apparent booze. Overall - good if a bit boozy.
