Hi,
quite honestly if the strike goes ahead I do not want to attend as it is quite some difficulty for me to organise alternative travel. Sorry but it would be just too much hassle given that I also need to work.

Overall a fresh, slightly spicy, moreish fruit taste. The finish develops over time from initially very sweet and closed i...
