8/10

Poured this instead of making a pudding and nobody complained. The candied peel and dried fruit flavours make it taste like Christmas cake in liquid form. Goes brilliantly with dark chocolate if you want to double down. Already ordered another bottle.

9/10

Bought this for a dinner party and it was the star of the evening. The chocolate and cinnamon hit you straight away and everyone kept going back for more. At under £14 this is genuinely a bargain for how good it tastes. Will be buying again for Christmas.

6/10

I can see why people rate this but personally I found the sweetness and the chocolate a bit overwhelming after half a glass. The spicy finish is nice and it does linger for ages which is impressive. Might work better as a tiny after-dinner pour rather than a proper drink. Not bad for the price though.
