Comments:
Refill butt 4112, 589 bottles. This is lovely stuff. Oh why did they close this distillery?! Great savoury spectrum of flavours - fried onions, soy sauce, salted popcorn. Heavenly (even the horse dung is good, I now know what "clean" manure flavour refers to). Excellent indeed. I bought a bottle which I'm going to husband very carefully.
Verdict:
I like this a lot!
