An exotic dip in to apple paradise. Nectar to start with, a busrt of flowers then hints of banana as it goes down. The local variety Hollow Core did well and I also got hold of some unusually large Black Dabinett. Some of the older trees contain varieties that never got officially recognised or have been lost to time. The blend contained a large proportion of my Mellow Yellows, an early one that tends to be over before I'm ready. Also another I call Pixie, small and green on a tree that looks more like a Holy Thorn.

750ml bottle from Scrattings. 2018 vintage. Slighty hazy orange golden colour with a thin white foam head that quickly dissipates away and aroma of fruity apple, some caramel. Taste is tart, fleshy, fruity, apple, orchardy, bittersweet with alittle caramel and a mellow banana-like yeasty hint. Medium bodied, soft carbonatio, dry fruity finish. Nicely drinkable.
