Seville marmalade and apple on the nose. A flavour of pear drops, or perhaps sour apple jelly sweets, gives way to more sweetness of nectarines, pineapples and apricots on the finish.

Sherry-sweet and woody of the type I’d imagine a particular type of cigar to be. Toasting the King’s coronation in an appropriate style with the dram carrying his warrant as the former Prince of Wales.

Dod they take the sherry out before they filled these casks? Wow! Its dark - a deep sherry-red brown - and powerfully sweet. At cask strength it packs a punch too.

A lovely, sweet dram which pairs remarkably well with a buttered hot cross bun. The perfect Easter holiday dram! On its own hints of parma violet and a more floral sweetness.

Notably more oaky than Black thanks to a longer maturation, its a deeper colour too. Whilst smoky it remains very gentle and rounded - there’s a honey sweetness at the heart of this - meaning its a good everyday, unchallenging dram.

Gentle meat and barbecued meats on the nose. Warming gingerbread and tangy dark orange marmalade on the palate. There’s some chilli pepper too on the finish.

Almond and nutty flavours to the fore with some cherry and dried fruit on the palate - raisins, cranberries and a hint of cocoa. M&S claim this is “reminiscent of Christmas cake, which makes it a perfect winter drink”. I’m not sure it’s perfect, but is palatable at £16 for a 50cl (pretty) bottle.

A bright honey gold with notes of orange blossom and honey sweetness on the nose. A light, fudgey palate with sea salt and a finish of vanilla and citrus fruits.
