Nose : Sweet prunes , choya liqueur , port wine , dates , honey. Thick and sexy. A joy. Palate: Thick oily and viscous. Sweet sugary entry with the dried fruit compote on the second wave. The tawny port is very noticeable and is adding an interesting dimension, while not overshadowing some anise and and liquorice candy. Finish :Long, sweet turning spicy with milk chocolate and burnt sugar.

Bottom line:

This is a really warming, sweet, and satisfying after meal dram, excellent stuff to sip in front of the fire in a cold winter day (If i had a fireplace, and if we really had any cold winter days here in Israel…). A real treat of a dram, adding the port profile to the sherry maturation, and not over imposing.This dram is not widely available on all shops, but still can be found on some online retailers sites (see link above).

Lovely stuff. Liked this one best of all the four finishes I’ve tasted in the last weeks by GD.
