This sparkling organic Medium Dry cider is made exclusively from the Court Royal apple. Its natural sweetness means it can be enjoyed as a dessert fruit, but when fermented it produces a delicate, aromatic, medium dry cider. Despite irregular cropping we have planted a number of Court Royal trees and 2011 proved to be a great harvest. We offer this rare cider for your consideration.

Bottle at home picked up from Hereford Cider Museum. A light hazed petrol yellow coloured pour with a decent fading effervescence. Aroma is dry funky apple, bark, rubber, tangy apple curd. Flavour is composed of semi sweet apple, spicy funk, tart drying finish. Palate is tart, highish fine bubbles, tart spicy finish. Good stuff.

Bottle. Strong tannins, apple, lots of skin. Bitter tannic finish after some fresh fruity apples and a touch of caramel. Lovely.
