Bottle shared in High Wycombe - thanks to Paul. Pours clear copper with a slim head. The nose has light caramel, oxidation, ripe fruits, dates. Medium sweet flavour with more gooey caramel, ripened fruits, dates, old leather, light tang. Medium to full bodied with fine carbonation. Lightly warming in the finish with more toffee, caramel, dried fruits, berries, some oxidation. Pretty good stuff.

Tasting at Alex’s (thx, for sharing it, Alex!). Vintage 2005. Pours a hazy opaque brown with no head. Aroma is cherries, chocolate, woody. Taste is same with no carbonation at all. Pleasant.

27,5 cl bottle @ Tammela vintage tasting
No BBE or bottling info
Aroma has raisins, sweet malt and toffee. Flavour has tart oud bruin tones, some caramel and toffee. Finishes sour and tart with green apples and more caramel. Red wine is strong with this one. Not sure what to think about this; not good but not bad either.

Bottle courtesy of maniac, thanks! Cloudy reddish color. Aroma of tannic plums. Aroma of boozy heavy spice, tons of tannins. Weird.

Lots of caramelized malt and some raspberry. Lots of basement flavor and some oxidization. Amber pour with decent head and lacing. From 2002? Very old. Bottle thanks to maniac.
