Morton Baca 4.0

Delicious and potent. Excellent for a nightcap. It's quite tart with prominent grape and oak flavors, and a very tannic, dry mouthfeel that evokes port. I enjoyed The Prisoner more.

Randolph Schilling 4.0

Great balance and CASK STRENGTH at 100 proof, as the bottle indicates. I’m liking it as much as others rated it at 92 vs 87.

Kathryn Alford 4.5
