Bottled. Cork came out flying like mad, luckily the glass was ready and closeby, so not too much spilled. Pale yellow colour with small sparking white head that disappears fast. Aroma is pear, some mild blue cheese and some mild green apple like notes. Flavour is quite much the same with some slight wood to it as well. Quite tart and dry-palated perry.

2006 Bottle. My eye was nearly a casualty of the cork. I swear, I only started to untie the cage, then bang, the cork and cage went off flying as if it was a tether, around my hand and off into the distance. Lost maybe a half a glass. Pours with a fizzy white head that dissipates over a violently sparkling pale and clear yellow body. Aroma is crisp pear, tons of co2, must and forest aromas, and floral. Taste is pear, florals, light esters, medium residual sugars, with a sort of cotton candy or caramelized note. The carbonation is ridiculously high, way too high. Burp!

Bottle 75 cl. Courtesy of yespr/Ungstrup. Clear golden with a vague tint of green. Subdued aroma, a whiff of green apples perhaos. Light body with an extreme carbonation and vague, tart pear accents. Finishes dry with a subdued tartness. Surprisingly poor. 190209

Bottled. A light yellow perry with slight chunks of sediment floating around. The aroma is sweet and dominated by pears. The flavor is sweet and acidic with notes of pears, leading to a nicely tart finish.

75 cL bottle. Pours pale light greenish with a fully gone and initially fizzy head. Dry and herbal pear aroma. Fizzy mouthfeel. Phenolic and slight mouldy. Dry and citric finish. Strange and interesting.

Cloudy pale yellow et tres mousseaux. Fresh pear and light sulphur on this one. Highly carbonated, carrying a firm minerally liquid across the palate. Spicy, with fresh pear and fairly good rustic yeast character. Quality stuff.

Really? 28th percentile. This was unusual and very enjoyable. Seeing it is from Rouen reminds me of my time in that city, the Cathedral,the interesting architecture, Jeanne d’Arc. Anyway. This cider has an interesting white color and lots of sediment. Very heavily carbonated, and sediment, I imagine little pieces of pear. Light aroma of the countryside. Great flavor, quite sweet but not cloying, some barnyard, but this is very light. Interesting appearance, some complexity, this is a good product.

Fourth cider (first Perry) of the night at the Indra - Cider, Sake and Mead tasting 8/31/07. Appearance looks like cloudy pear juice with a bunch of lingering carbonation. Very pulpy in appearance. Aroma is sugary pear. Taste is certainly pear, with noticeably less body than an apple cider.
