Keg at Crask Inn, Middle of Fucking Nowhere, just north of Lairg - Hazy pale yellow, no head. Strong apple peel, some cooking apples, bit of stewed sugariness, tannins, bitter tang at the back.

Keg at Black Isle Cider. It pours lightly hazy golden with a dissipating white head. The aroma is sweet, sticky, apple skin, barnyard, apple pie and custard. The taste is crisp, dry, sweet - sour, juicy, apple pie, touch sherbet, fresh, appletiser, sweet, bit of icing sugar and spritzy with a soft, dry finish. Average body. Fruity and easy drinking. Maybe a touch sweet. But decent anyhow.

On keg at the Black Isle Bar, Inverness. Appearance - cloudy golden with no head and very low carbonation. Nose - smells like proper still Scrumpy. Sour apples. Taste - more of the same. Good to have a genuine Scottish ciderwith provenance. Palate - close to medium bodied with a tangy texture and a long dry tangy finish. Overall - proper cider! Great stuff.
