Norma is a standout cider from our 2018 season, offering a refined experience with its cider apple base and distinctive character. As part of our Pet Nat series, this bottle-fermented cider showcases a harmonious blend of tannins and complexity.
On the nose, Norma presents a delightful range of apple aromas—both fresh and baked—complemented by subtle oak undertones. These aromatic notes carry through to the palate, where the cider reveals depth and weight with a soft, pleasant astringency on the finish. A light spritz adds a refreshing touch to this sophisticated cider.
Preservative and gluten-free, Norma shares a family resemblance with our Norman cider but offers a slightly softer profile, making it a versatile choice for those who appreciate a nuanced and well-rounded cider experience.

750ml bottle from Mr West. Orangey golden colour, short-lived white foam head and aroma of apple, funk, fruit. Taste is tangy, tart, appley, fruity, with barnyard funky notes, some straw, wood, oak, and drying spicy tannin. Medium bodied, light carbonation, dry funky tannic finish. Nicely drinkable.
