Do It Puritan Damson 2019. To create this bottle hand sorted Damson Fruit (50%) was slowly fermented in an ex whisky barrel with the addition of some Somerset Redstreak (5%) and Dabinett. After three months of carbonic maceration freshly pressed Browns (40%) & Dabinett (5%) apple juice was introduced & normal fermentation continued until it was time to bottle.
The outcome is wild, smoky with herby red fruit aromas that leap out of the glass, & follow on in the mouth, joined by plum, raspberry & blackberry flavours as well as marzipan, spice & a hint of tannin.
Fermented with wild yeasts. With no sulphites added & no filtering or pasteurisation.

750ml bottle from Little Pomona. Hazy purple colour, short-lived thin white head and aroma of tangy plum. Taste is tart, funky meaty, with fleshy plum, apple, some woody notes and tannin. Medium bodied, light carbonation, dry plum finish. Nicely drinkable.
