An extremely drinkable mix of Cox and Bramley apples from Laurel Tree farm at Boars Head, topped off with Dabinet from Quarry Farm. There's a lot going on: crisp acidity gives way to sweetness and a mellow tannin finish. Lots of funky notes to spark your interest and the slow maturation lends a soft butteryness. Apple peel, sweet apple flesh, chewy apple core, it’s all here.

330ml bottle from Bignose & Beardy. Slightly hazy pale yellow gold colour, no head and aroma of mellow apple. Taste is sweetish, apple, fleshy, some slight sulphury and biscuit hints, with drying tart acidity. Medium bodied, low carbonation, dry tart finish. Quite drinkable.
