This is where the Tempted journey started. Not being able to find a dry cider that he liked, Davy blended this fruity, fresh and floral cider to suit his own palate and this is where the Tempted journey began. Not bone dry, Tempted Dry delivers a crisp, refreshing taste.

Bottle at home picked up from Crumlin Tesco. A clear golden orange coloured pour with a short lived fizz. Aroma is light tart, tangy green apple, woody apple pips, light plastic, fresh juicy tart apple. Flavour is composed of semi sweet, light tart juicy apple, light apple tart, some white sugars. Midget gems. Palate is semi sweet, tart, crisp finish. Highish carbonation. Solid all rounder easy drinking.

50cl bottle from Abeervinum, Rimini, Italy. Pours loaded yellow, crisp transparent, with medium-gross white foam. Aroma is of apples indeed, but particular, recalling prosecco, probably because of the yeast used. Body is average, like carbonation. Taste is medium sweet, with a hint of acidity. Final is average.

[50cl bottle from Morrison’s, Bracknell.] A straw coloured pour with a fast fizz; sweet dessert apple aroma; sweet apple taste with a spritzy mouth feel; then a drier finish with some tannins. A decent cider.

500ml bottle from Pilango, shared with Soph watching the Soundgarden documentary Motorvision. Pours clear gold, sparkling. Aroma is light sulphur, distant apple funk. Taste presents a light apple sweetness, clean with a noticeably drying close, perhaps too much for me. Would've liked more of a fruity linger. Generally decent.

500ml bottle from Home Bargains, Darlington. Pours a sparkling golden colour with a white foamy head that quickly dissipates away. Aroma of mellow apple and alittle funk. Taste is fruity apple with apple skins, woody oak, leathery barnyard and drying tannins. Light to medium bodied, fine spritzy carbonation, dry tangy finish. Nicely drinkable.

Bottle from Booths, Media City. Pale golden cider. Not as dry as expected, given there’s also a medium-dry version of this cider, with a good light to medium apple taste.
