Lasted surprisingly well. Still almost black, dull red rim, well settled sediment. Quite light and thinning on the finish, but good leather and tobacco flavours in the middle. Improved over four hours and showed at its best with hard cheese. Leaves a warm glow and pleasantly spicy aftertaste. For me, at its best in the 10 -15 year band.

Dull red rim, hint of brick. Lovely spicey leathery taste. Lingers well, but thinning at the end. Drink up.
