Colour of dark honey. Initial nose has some reduction, burnt caramel notes, then with air this takes on more of a pure honey aromatic, with hints of sweet spice, maple syrup, raisin. Palate is heading sweet, but not cloying as a touch of acid and a nice kick of heat from alcohol provide lift to the creamy, honey driven taste and texture.

De color caoba la nariz es intensa, madura, concentrada, con toques de pasas sultanas, miel de romero, caramelo y un fondo ligeramente balsámico. En boca entra bien, untuoso, con dulzor intenso que se equilibra con los amargos y el alcohol, bastante persistente. Notable profundidad.

Raisin juice, sorghum, chlorine, maple sugar, like drinking flat coca cola syrup. Immensely concentrated as it should be but none of the layers or top notes of a great PX, just the richness and painful sugar. Spend a few more dollars for the Toro Albala.

Wasn't sure what to expect. Almost a tawny port. Sweet, but not overly so.
