Waken is a wildly popular and deliciously easy-drinking, medium-sweet apple cider which packs a fruity punch. Cloudy cider, Kentish style : we take one of our clear, filtered apple ciders and then blend with 100% pressed apple juice. Powerfully symbolic : Waken celebrates the stirrings of new life & looking forward to a prosperous Spring ahead.

Bottle from the cidery stall at RHS Wisley. Aroma is sweet and sugary, quite light. Hazy pale gold. No head. Initial low key sweet apple juice but quickly develops a sour peel streak. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Flat-fizzy carbonation. Long dry finish. Pleasent but unmemorable.

Sample, gracious thanks to Grumbo for this. Misty yellow appearance. Familiar Kentish sweetness forms the bulk of this character, not too acidic with gentle smooth pulp lending a good body and hazed textures. Quite liked it.

Sample courtesy of Grumbo, cheers Graham! Slightly hazy pale golden colour, short-lived thin white foam head and aroma of pulpy apple, vegetal. Taste is sweetish, green apple, toffee apple, some caramel hints and tangy notes. Medium bodied, low carbonation, medium-sweet finish Quite OK

18/6/2020. Bottle from Hopsters, Ipswich. Pours hazy pale gold with a small bubbly white head. Aroma is apple pulp and starchy potatoes, with a slight herbal edge. Medium sweetness. Moderate body, no carbonation. Quite a rich apple sauce finish.
