500ml Bottle - Brown with some orangey tinges. Spicy and fruity aroma with notes of cinnamon, ginger and cloves. The taste is similar and is like a cross between a mince pie and a Christmas cake.

500ml bottle from Master of Malt. Golden colour with a white foam head that dissipates away. Phenolic islay whisky aroma. Taste is malty, underlying fruity, with phenolic whisky and salty notes. Quite thin bodied, high carbonation, dry tangy finish. Quite OK.

500ml bottle from Aldi - Hazy amber body, medium white head. Nose is a tinny caramel, yeasty, basement aroma. Taste is metallic, weak caramel, bit of a wash out. Not the best, not the worst.
