Lightish amber brown. Intense and glorious aroma of polished wood and sweet/savoury dried fruits, especially fig, and walnuts. I couldn't find better words to summarise the flavours than Taylor's themselves have used: 'rum and raisin'. There's a dark caramel flavour but the sweetness tastes moderate thanks to the complexity of the wood-aged flavours. Fabulous power, depth and freshness, the flavours last forever. Glorious and a fitting tribute to the end of the war. Stunning and unspittable.
