Skylark is a next generation sparkling cider, popping with big notes of fresh Kentish dessert apples, followed by a flourish of complex cider tannins. Slow fermentation of this special blend of dessert and cider varieties creates a deeply refreshing, medium dry cider for people who expect the beyond.

330ml can. Clear dark gold, moderate sized fizzy head which leaves some skimming on top. Aroma of tart dessert apples, wood, tannins. Taste is semi sweet, moderate tart apples, tannins, light drying close. Somewhat of a cloying syrupy mouthfeel in the close but a nice fine carbonation runs through. Good.

330ml bottle – Pours a clear sparking gold colour with a small white head that settled. The aroma is apples with some light tannin notes. A medium sweet taste, sweet desert and tart apple flavours, some woody tannins and quite a dry finish. Decent.

On 23rd Jan 2020 I decided to change all my 34 'ticks' for no-beers into rates. Every 'tick' scored a '3', this will not change as they become 'rates'. My 'ticks' were Ciders, Meads, Perrys and Sake. This is a cider!

330ml bottle from Crafty Nectar. Golden colour, short-lived fizzy white foam head and aroma of fruity apple & some light funk. Taste is sweetish, juicy apple, with alittle apple skin, some caramel and slight woody, funky notes. Medium bodied, spritzy carbonation, dry tangy finish. Quite drinkable.
