Comments: 

Very fruity and intense. Definitely drink this at or near cask strength. There’s a bitter, malty note if you drink it neat, which softens into dark chocolate as you add water. A very fun dram to play around with by dribbling different amounts of water into it.

Verdict:

I like this a lot.
