## Customer feedback

Aggregate ratings are mostly in the five-star category, with some three-star ratings, but the small rating sample and absence of written feedback do not show what buyers liked or disliked. These figures cannot establish how the listed cask character, 52% ABV or tasting notes are experienced in practice.
