September 29, 2016 - Here is a thirteen year old bottle that I was not sure what to expect from. It started off smoky with licorice, burnt toast, and some herbal / savoury notes ... An hour plus later smoky remains but now it contains green peppers and dried black raspberry seasoned with anise seed; I could do without the green pepper but certainly was thrilled with the rest and how this bottle has stood the test of time. That it's not completely dead is testament enough for me.
