The spice is nice! This smells like a gorgeous fruitcake spiked with awesome booze. No water needed here. The palate is a balance of every fruit you can imagine, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla, and malt. Man, the only thing I like about the A’bundah more than this 18 is the beautiful clove finish. This one is medium and reminds me of a spicy buttery fluffy muffin. The theme is “Wonderful Christmastime” by Paul McCartney. 4.0
