So plush, rounded and consistent. Wood treatment presents a lot of vanillin, which relaxes over time. Overall, nicely presented. Will certainly purchase more.

Aged this one for 4 years and it’s paid off. Deep black cherry and an almost mint flavour with tremendous depth.
We’re saving some for tomorrow to see how extra air exposure impacts it.
Update: The day of air was worthwhile leading to a silkier mouthfeel.
