Panel's tasting note: "We are transported into a carpenter’s workshop that specializes in restoring antique mahogany furniture. The aromas filling the air are all very subtle and elegant; oily, waxy and hot melted glue mixed in with a smouldering Cuban cigar and a freshly made sticky toffee pudding. The taste is initially sweet, chocolate-coated sponge toffee, a hint of smoke as well as ‘woody’ flavours and a surprisingly dry, nutty finish like a VORS Amontillado Sherry. With water a bag of mixed nuts, figs, prune juice, hickory wood chips and mead wine. The taste is now dry with a lovely sweetness – a coffee and walnut cake accompanied by a glass of Oloroso Dulce Sherry."

Drinking tip: "Enjoying a rest from working in the garden"
