Black Bull 40 Years Old Batch 2, 41.9% abv

This will be bottled in the Fall of 2012. Watch for it! Mint, apples pears and allspice on the nose. There is an element of dry grass that starts out on the palate which is quickly followed by essence of brown sugars. The finish is light and delicate with melon and kiwi fruit flavours.
