  • Great in every sense. I don't normally get such bold flavor from Croftengea, this expression really changed that. Big fan of this one.

  • Nose:

    Tar, fresh fruit. Syrupy, mossy, earthy and pungent.

  • Taste:

    Thick, rich, powerful and syrupy. Sweet cream, honey, cinnamon bun, currant and sherry. Stewed fruits galore. Ashy smoke grows, pungent and earthy.

  • Finish:

    Long, powerful and ashy. Smoke, minerality, sweet stewed fruits and honey. Black currant for days.
