375ml bottle from Appalachian Vinter. 2018 batch. Stemless wineglass @ home. Big ole sudsy head, fine amber clarity. Persistent activity. Smell is of freshly macerated apples, saline & light cedar. Taste is soft, buttery, sauced apples with a mineral-y middle. Shy tartness, wood chips, murky browned apple flesh flavor. Carbonation is soft but constant. Semi-sweet or slightly more, but not rich. Not quite thin. This is okay, but a bit lacking. The few other keeved English ciders I've had were better.

Pours a wonderful glowing gold from a bottle, lightly effervescent and clear. Aroma is sweet yet also medicinal, like a bottle of aspirin. A little mushroom like. Sweet, syrupy but with a lingering bitterness, even some funk like a washed rind cheese without the salt. Good cider, interesting.
