I had mixed expectations for the bottle. There was enough rounded texture to keep me interested, even though the finish turned dry and bitter. Not perfect, but it worked well for me.

Honestly, this one was different from what I expected. The start was better than the finish: little caramel first, then the sweetness was flat. Fine for a casual serve, less convincing on its own.
fruity - spicedThe gentle spice came through clearly, and warming finish kept the sip interesting. I'd happily choose it again.
