Tasting notes
Deep orange-brown. Golden raisins and some black-tea notes, burnt apricots, walnuts. Ultra-sweet but with a slightly strange chalky aftertaste. Long, viscous and satisfying nevertheless. (JH)

Very thick and sweet. Tooth rotting. (JR)
Deep brown in color with a slight green tinge to the rim, the NV Show Liqueur Muscat gives moderate to intense aromas of mashed raisins, prunes, fruit cake, roasted hazelnuts and a whiff of coffee. Incredibly sweet (228 grams per liter of residual sugar) and rich, it is well balanced with very crisp acid and finishes long, but is a little simple. Drink it now.

Walnut brown colour. Smells like very alcoholic Christmas cake. Rich, mouthfilling and generous. Liquidised Christmas cake with plenty of added alcohol, though the alcohol does not stand out with such richness. Dark toffee on the finish. Heady and luxurious. GV for such richness. Try with ice cream. (JH)
