Oh, let me clarify.... when I speak of the taylor fladgate tawny, i'm not
speaking
of any of the aged (10, 20, 40 yr, etc) ports but just the basic one on the
shelf.
Out of that one and dow's boardroom, I prefer dow's boardroom.

I have had the taylor 20 year (I never buy anything over 20 years because
i'm
told by many that you don't get much for your money past that), and it was
quite good. I don't care very much for the Cockburn's, however, It's good,
mind you, just IMHO not as good as the boardroom or taylor fladgate.
