Comments:
Cask 3420. It’s been a while since I had an Imperial. This one is pretty good. Highly fruity, and quite waxy, it’s fragrant and full of flavour. The high strength is a real prize, with water it softens to vanilla-laden fruit. I’m going to drink as much as I can.
Verdict:
I like this a lot.
