“A rarity, in which importers are allowed 6–12 bottles a year. Distilled in 1974 and placed in demi-johns since 2005, its lovely amber hue contains complex but explosive aromas and flavors that include high-pitched floral notes, dried plum, fig, and apricot, along with quince and tobacco. The finish is round, nutty, and spicy. A delicious example of well-aged Borderies.”—Charles Neal, Charles Neal Selections
