500ml bottle from Tipplers, Bewdley. Flat. Pours a clear copper, aroma of lightly caramelised apple fruit. Taste is indeed exceptionally dry, light acidic prickle with very gentle tannin presence. Its a bit dull, probably due to its age (5 months past its best before) so fresh would reveal additional fruity flavour. Ok
