”  We are boycotting the corporately anodyne new name. Really, what snorey-dull person did that?

This is the TN for the D60 brought by BMHR.

D60, brought by BMHR. Red-brown, 30% opaque. Coffee in the nose. To taste bitterness early, heat mid-palate, red fruit. Great size. Me like.

Mature red colour; mature spicy cranberries on the nose. Sweet entry, gentle tobacco mixed in with soft fruit and still some soft tannins. Wonderfully mouthfilling flavour, big fruity aftertaste Still some years from maturity! 92/100.
