Bottle, 75cl corked. A white head of moderate size forms over a quite clear straw to golden color. Quite a lot of carbonation. The aroma is quite heavy for a non-iced cider, with alcohol pulling a significant part of the load, without getting pushing. Fresh apples, some funk and well ripened apple, apple and funk. Lemony hints. It's quite tart on the palate, with enough residual sugar to harness the alcohol warmth. Good carbonation too. Fresh and ripe apple, some grass and apple cores, hints of wood or forest and a light funk. Lasting finish. A tasteful, complex and delicious cider indeed. 240323
