Intense nose of ripe, red apples, sweet. Smooth flavors of apples with hints of candy sugar. Full body. Well hidden alcohol and a long, warming finish.

Bottle purchased from Amazon of all places and drunk at home. Dark gold, clear and flat. Sweet and boozy aroma with strong applesauce and cognac in the nose. Sweet taste, more apples and some sugary toffee, mulling spice. Orchard fruit tart notes appear the sumptous finish. No carbonation but it's got a thick, oily body. There's so much to this.
