Sweet, appley aroma. Palate has a delicious bittersweet apple character with some spicy bite and a bit of a tannic grip. Very fruity and quite pure, with a nice savoury twist.

Bottle from Waitrose. Crystal clear gold with a small white foamy top at first. Aroma of apple skins, leather, light blossom. Taste of apple skins, pith and vinegar, light sweet and tangy element but the bitterness stands out more in the finish. Hint of caramel on occasional sips. Semi-drying rather than a full dry cider which I prefer anyway. Very good flavoursome cider.

Clear champagne golden. Green apples, some funk, slightly vinegary, apple peel, lemon. Dry mild sourness, slightly bitter and sweet. Medium to light bodied, watery texture, low carbonated, dry sour sweet fruity finish. Very tasty and complex cider!

Bottle (from Alko web). Deep golden colour with a small white head. Aroma is mature apples with some slight wooden and mild toffeeish sweetness. Flavour is mature apples, some green apples as well as mild vanilla and herbal tones with some quite sweet elements to it too. Refreshing.

Smells and tastes like cider, its fine if not outstanding in any way, its not very dry though and just seems like its lacking a bit of flavour.

500ml bottle from Tesco. It pours clear golden - amber with a small white head. The aroma is sweet, perfumed, golden delicious apple, dried apple, white sugar, touch if melon and white grape. The taste is crispy, dry, snappy, bitter - sweet, sugary, golden delicious apples, dry oak, tannin, nip of booze, melon, white grape, gooseberry fool, dull alcohol and honey cake with a fairly short, dryish finish. Medium body and fine, prickly carbonation. A bit sweet for a dry cider imo. Drinks fine though.
