Tasted Neat. nose: sweet, definitely get wine. cherries or berries palate: berries, creamy, sweet finish: long, spicy and bit bitter on my second dram and I'm just not getting much out if it. Palate was overloaded. It opens up a bit with a little ice and mixes well with Ginger Beer though. 36.99 so not mad. It can be a mixer, wonder what kind of cocktails can be made out of it...
