the last bottle in the case, a great holding for 6 years. lush, intense honey flavours, with dry apricot, some citrus-like acidity well balance to the dense sweetness, sticky texture, m+ finish with fresh fruits and a little ginger or spices. very enjoyable, at peak time. Ap 5/5, Ar 14/15, Palate 17/20, Overall 4+3/10 Total 93/100

Dense and rich flavours, honey, black tea and osmanthus, very fragrant. Tasted with awesome Framingham TBA, more enjoyable than TBA, just a little shorter finish. Ap 5/5, Ar 14/15, Palate 17/20, Overall 4+3/10 Total 93/100

Bright golden. Dense, pure honey, balanced by solid acidity and some yellow florals. Long finish. Can’t believe I nearly completed this case within 2 months, with various desserts,my tasting is getting old age :-)

Medium gold, bright and clear. Dry apricots, raisins, clean and mild honey flavours, intense sweetness supported by citrus acidity as a soft bone. Smooth texture, subtle tea and ginger in long finish. A beautiful noble. Ap 5/5, Ar 14/15, Palate 18/20, Overall 3+3/10 Total 93/100
