Nose: Plums, prunes, raisins, peaches, leather, dragon fruit, hints of white grapes.

Tasting:  Sweet sour. White grapes, cooked bananas, prunes, peach preserves, peat, hints of slivovitz. 
Finish: Short. Peach preserves, green tea, white grapes, prunes. 

Comments: 

Supposedly sourced from Bushmills. This is slightly peated, and it offsets the Sauternes sweetness. There's plenty of plums, fresh dried, even distilled, but there's also a leathery, cooked fruit note that must be the peat. A pleasant little taste.

Verdict:

I like this.
