June 9, 2023 - BYOB lunch in The Spectator boardroom hosted by Jonathan Ray (The Spectator's drinks editor). Limited notes in the main!
Showing some heat and with a hint of (good) cattiness suggesting that this could do with a little longer in bottle.
Excellent now but should be better in a years time. 2024-2026. 90+?+ -

June 4, 2023 - Classic, solid Illumination. Not as exciting as Massican, but with a creamier texture that will appease a broader crowd.
