There are no indications of vintage or age, but upon investigation, it appears to be a vatting selected by craftsmen from the Brooklyn area in New York State, USA. Since it's still available for purchase normally, it doesn't seem to be an exceptionally old bottle. It is likely diluted, but with a rare 42% alcohol content, though the significance remains unclear. As it's targeted for the US market, the 750ml size offers a slightly more generous feel. While it clearly exhibits sherry cask characteristics such as plum, bitter chocolate, and black sugar, there is also a slightly slick clay-like earthiness that makes it feel like a typical Jura sherry cask.
