Don’t you just love drinking something that existed on this planet before you did? Oops, I’ve said too much. No matter your birthday, you’ll want to take a look at this piece of liquid history. Disgorged in 2025, this spent three decades on the lees. Autolytic, savoury, smoky, almost peaty. Words fail to capture the singularity of this bottle. And there’s still plenty of life left in it too… ABV: 10.5%
