Bottle sampled at The Vanguard at 1000 Trades, pours a clear deep dark red, no head. Aroma brings intense raspberries, with treacle and honey nectar. Flavour follows accordingly, with incredibly intense raspberries, honey, and treacle. High sweetness but tastefully so. Complex and with tons of depth. Wonderful.

Bottle sampled at The Vanguard at 1000 Trades, pours a clear dull reddish amber. Aroma brings out intensely sweet honey nectar, with moderate blackberry character. Flavour is intense with lots of treacle toffee, wildflower honey and intense sweetness. Complex and wonderfully made, with barely a notice of blackberry. Very nice.
