IBU: -

Ticks: 2

A lightly sparkling wild-fermented perry made mainly from Oldfield, Blakeney Red, Huffcap and Gin pear varieties at Killahora’s cidery near Cork. The fermentation is completed in bottle in a ‘pet-nat’ style (naturally sparkling with less fizziness) to allow the taste of the pears to shine through in their purest form.

17/5/2020. Sample courtesy of danlo, cheers Ed! Pours clear bright gold with a small bubbly white head. Aroma is medium sweet pear, light caramel and sugars, touch funky, pastry and horse blanket. Moderate sweetness and light tartness. Medium body, average carbonation. Liked this one.

750ml wired cork bottle. Opened with a pop. Sparkling yellow gold colour, short-lived white foam head and aroma of pear, woody. Taste is pear, fruity, fleshy, with solventy funky earthy hints, some zingy white wine notes and tart acidity. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, drying acidic finish. Quite drinkable.
