3Backbencher had a few things going for it. I could appreciate the warm oak, though the alcohol stood out too much. I wouldn't refuse it, but I have other favourites.

5The first thing I noticed with the bottle was the aroma. It opened with gentle spice, then moved into malted sweetness without losing balance. One of the more enjoyable options I've tried in this category.
