On the nose there's Russet apples along with honeydew melon and blossom. It’s a lovely green tinged, slightly hazy yellow colour. In the mouth it has a pillowy sparkle, flavours of kiwi and lime zest and that characteristic spice and slight tanginess of the col fondo method.
Drink this cold but not frozen, as a beautiful, versatile match with all manner of seafood dishes. It’s also pretty perfect across a cheese board.

Bottle at home picked up from HOTM i think. A light hazed yellow petrol coloured pour with a fine white head. Aroma is semi sweet, and tart, floury apple, tangy pear, wheat, lemon squeeze. Flavour is composed of tart and tangy green apple, floury, prickly, lemon rind to drying finish. Palate is tangy, mild pucker, spritzy carbonation. Lingering light funk. Good depth.

Sample thanks to danlo. Misty yellow appearance, aroma has pale apple, vanilla, flora. Taste has a light spritz, extremely dry with crisp crunchy apple flesh, soft tannin, and a certain underripe bitterness. Interesting dry cider.

30/1/2021. Bottle sample courtesy of danlo, cheers Ed! Pours hazy pale gold with a small white head. Aroma of vanilla, wood, sweet herbs, flowers, yeast. Moderate sweetness with sharp tangy bitter tart notes. Medium body, average carbonation. Dry finish. Flavoursome and enjoyable.
