Consumed as Waitrose English Vintage Cider. Pale gold/straw colour, some spotted white top. Aroma of white sugars, tart apples and peel. Its slick, somewhat tangy with apple juice but becomes more mellow . Bittersweet finish, a very mild hint of oak, slight warming alcohol going down. Not particularly complex in flavours but decent enough.

Had it as Waitrose English Vintage Cider (2022). Clear golden pour with a tiny white head. Aromas of tart apple, wood/oak, some cinnamon. Taste is quite similar. Well-rounded with a slightly boozy finish, but in a good way.

Danke an minutemat. Weicher, dunkel fruchtiger Beginn. Würzig nach rotem Apfel ohne starke Süße, trocken herb, zum Ende mit pelzigem Mundgefühl. Süffig, minimal alkoholisch, langer Nachgeschmack. Gefällt. 11/10/9/11/12/11

Bottle from the Waitrose on Glouscter Road. 2014 Vintage. Pours pale gold with a few bubbles. Aroma is very light - suggests apple vinegar? Nope. It’s just a little bit oaky. Funny how that came into the aroma. Finishes less than dry, but it’s very pleasant.
