Nia Okafor VIPsAllowed - Christmas cake in a glass
8/10

Bought a bottle for a dinner party and it was a massive hit. Poured it with some stilton and walnuts after the main course and everyone was asking where I got it. At 20% it packs a punch too — two glasses and you know about it. Will definitely buy again.

7/10

I keep coming back to this one. The burnt caramel and toasted almond notes are really comforting on a cold evening. It's not going to blow your mind but it's reliable and the price is fair. Goes down dangerously easy for something this strong.

7/10

My nan used to drink cream sherry at Christmas and I always thought it was horrible. This has changed my mind a bit — there's a nice nuttiness and some orange peel thing going on that keeps it interesting. Not something I'd drink every day but good to have in the cupboard.

6/10

The wine shop guy recommended this when I said I wanted to try sherry. It's decent but leans sweeter than I'd like. You can taste the caramel and raisins which is nice, but I think I prefer the drier styles. My wife loved it though so not a waste.

5/10

Saw this recommended online and gave it a go. It's alright — tastes like raisins and toffee, finishes clean enough. But for £15.75 I feel like there are more interesting things to spend the money on. Maybe I'm just not a cream sherry person.

8/10

Picked this up on a whim because I wanted something different after dinner. The dried fig and toffee flavours are gorgeous, and it's not nearly as sweet as I thought cream sherry would be. Genuinely impressed for under £16.
