Nose
Sweet. Obviously a liqueur. Cinnamon, chocolate, orange peel. A touch of eucalyptus.
Palate
Thick, syrupy. Quite spicy and not cloying. The higher strength balances the sweetness. Eucalyptus again, pepper, plenty of ginger.
Finish
Lingering, spicy.
Comment
Interesting aromatic profile and good balance. To be enjoyed on crushed ice with chocolate or vanilla ice cream (or both !!).

Nose
An odd herbal note, reminiscent of balsam, wood glue and sap. Cherry Bakewells. A savoury edge of air dried ham. Red liquorice and bitters.
Palate
Sweet, very sweet with that herbal edge cutting through. Cherry menthols and sugared, fizzy cola bottles.
Finish
Short and sweet.
Comment
Nice, relatively complex and not too cloying.
