Very gin-esque.

The marketing that I have seen is aimed at using this for Port & Tonic, so the gin thing makes sense.

Very good graphics. I like it. Modern, with the instructions on the bottle. Treat like Sipsmith Summer Cup or Pim's. Chuck in some fruit, mixers and maybe mint for an alternative Summer drink.

I bumped into SCD yesterday. He tried it earlier in the week and reported it as being very tasty.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.

I tried it last week. Very youthful, fresh style, high on Muscat which really shows in the aromas. Medium-dry style which works wonders with tonic. Incredibly refreshing summer drink, and it looks great too. Well done!
