Fruity, Spicy, and just a touch of leather this is an excellent cask. Bursting with fruits the spice and leather help hold the sweetness in check and make for a rich and decadent experience. This is a real winner from the team at PM spirits and was a great choice to celebrate their 10 year anniversary.
