Alas, it was his only bottle left! I did end up getting the last bottle of the Boston Bual to try instead. But, he does now have me on his list of when the Malmsey comes back in I'm getting one.

Thank you, mosesbotbol, for introducing me to this. It definitely impressed me!

I enjoy the Boston Bual a lot too. Glad you are enjoying the Madeira! I just converted my accountant to Madeira and he's buying it like a mad man.

An awesome one to try is the Broadbent 10 Year Malmsey. It goes for under $50 and is readily available. You may be able to find for under $40, but around $35 is wholesale. Quite impressive stuff.
