Bottle sample courtesy of Fergus, cheers! Deep golden amber colour, afew bubbles on top which dissipate away and aroma of honey, toffee, wood, herb, spice, rum. Taste is mellow, honey with caramel, herbal & woody hints, some booze with rum notes. Smooth mouthfeel, oily full bodied, low carbonation, drying warming finish. Very sippable.
