Very floral and honeyish, the iced perry also brings a great fruit character, along with a lot of sweetness. Just enough balancing acidity. You don’t see too many iced perries but they are almost always fantastic.

Corked bottle
Skewed Refractometer Reading: 28.4°B
Pale color, hazy; surprisingly carbonated. Very nice aroma, unique: it reminds me of some Swiss dessert wine, intense, ripe apricots, flower; also lightly funky and woody, hint of smoke; absolutely crazy. Very sweet, almost syrupy; fruity, nice pear flavor, with moderate carbonation and correct acidity.
The flavor is not very complex, but the aroma makes up for that.

375mL bottle, pours a cloudy blonde with a medium white head. Aroma is unusual for an ice cider / perry, with farmhouse notes, dusty pears, and wheat - very unique nose for the style. Flavour is not very much like the smell, with sweet pears, caramel, and high residual sugars. There is a bit of carbonation that spruces things up a bit, but doesn't take away from complexity. Lovely stuff.

Bottle - Blanket, funk and some pear. Clear gold. Sweet pear and very rich. This is very nice, rich and syrupy.
