In the glass it’s a burnt amber / golden syrup like colour. The nose has hints of toffee, raisins, vanilla/spice and marmalade. While in the mouth I found it had plenty of upfront acidity, followed by a sweetish mid palate and dry, alcohol warming finish (it weighs in at 17.5% abv). However, it’s incredibly smooth and approachable. I think Mr. Spittoon summed it up well “it’s a very, very approachable beverage”.
