OK ‘Farmer’s Friend’ name got me. I’m a farmer. We’re always looking out for help. The Ibis here is supposed to control pests (thus the friendly moniker). Screw top easy open. Dark color. Can’t see through. Inky? Smells like paint, fruit and perfumes. Maybe something tree like and herbal too. Thick and viscous in the mouth. Flavors are coffee, black fruits and pie spices (nutmeg, mace, black pepper maybe). This is Oz Cab made to order. Reminds me a little of a wine I had on the plane going over there. Well made. Well priced (especially at Gross Out). It’ll work as this farmer’s ‘friend’ for sure.
