BushWalker (13101) said:
Comes in a 750 ml draw-cork bottle. Made from a blend of Bramley, Braeburn, Jonagold, and Golden's apples, and aged in a bourbon cask. Pale golden, with an aroma of whiskey, carrying tones of vanilla and smoke. Crisp, slightly sour apple, gives way to the whiskey, becoming more sour in the aftertaste, and with a little smoke in the finish. Unlike many spirit-flavoured ciders, this is well-balanced, with the whiskey complementing, rather than dominating; probably the best whisky or whiskey aged cider I've had.
