16.7%! Wow! SMells sort of menthol with notes of cedar and yes there's some VA on the palate it's very sweet and spicy, with more menthol, very soft tannins. Finish there's a little tobacco and something a bit like tawny port - not surprising with that alcohol Subtle it ain't, but this is enormous fun
