Nice old fashioned bottle. Pours a nice amber and completely clear. Nice full nose on this: floral, caramel, apple. Nice full bodied taste too: caramel, sweet up front, fruit cake mid range, cinnamon, sherry finish, with a kind of unripe fruit aftertaste. Manages to have quite a dry finish for such a sweet start. Complex and christmassy. Like it!
