500ml bottle. 2016 Vintage. 6%. Orangey golden colour, white foam head that dissipates to a thin rim and aroma of funky apple, herby. Taste is tangy, twiggy, fleshy apple, with herbal notes and lots of leathery drying tannins. Medium bodied, spritzy carbonation, dry finish. Quite OK.

Bottle from Beers’n’more. A very dry and almost wine-like cider. Lots of apples, slightly bitter, cardamom, some residual sweetness over a bone bone dry palate.

Orange golden color with a head that goes down quickly. Aroma is apples, phenolic, vanilla, cardamom. Taste is nice apples, more phenolic aromas. Bone dry finish, like an apple that feels like flour. Bone dry doesn’t even cut it.
