- T8ke's Tasting Notes:
  - Nose:Sweet butterscotch, peaches and honey, sweet papaya and a hint of tropical funk. Black pepper, ginger, candied berries and a hint of cinnamon meets brown sugar, more butterscotch and a pop of delightful tropical fruits. It's sweet, there's a pan of funk, there's dessert and hints of oak.
  - Palate: Rich on the palate, viscous from the proof but not too heavy. Sneaky for the proof, just a faint tickle of ethanol. Pineapples, peaches, pears, papaya and a hint of mango mixes with pleasant oak, cracked pepper, a touch of industrial funk and balancing, rich, tropical hogo. Light tobacco, more butterscotch and light dessert caramels here blend with tropical fruit, spice and enticing funk. It's not heavy and dull, it's bright and enticing.
  - Finish: Long finish, the funk settles here giving more time to the tropical fruits and caramels, the pleasant but respectful oak. More pepper, sweet caramels and butterscotch, lovely woody structure and more tropical fruits with some molasses, toffee and a final pop of tropical fruits and funk.
  - Overall: Not too old, not too young, bright and fun without tearing your head off. Aussie, baby!
