Bottle endorsed by and bought from Kris Wines, London. A very dense dark coloured pour with little in the way of a head. Nose was very promising, sweetish and fruity with a touch of roast. Fullish, smooth mouthfeel. Similar qualities in the flavour with tasty dark chocolate notes and a lingering slightly bitter finish. Can’t fault it.. Jamaica ? Nah she wanted a swig.....

cask - Pours ruby red with a small, lasting head. The aroma is of caramel malt, as is the flavor. It’s very sweet with tons of caramel. Too sweet. Drinkable but underwhelming.
