Bottle from the cidery. Pint glass pour. Bottles to spare. Clear honey amber body, white on gray head. Scent is very pithy & oaky with some perceived macerated sweetness. Crazy dry from the get go. Sizzling carbonation. Minerally, cherry pits, something floral like rose, some glue, popsicle stick finish. Really dry. Well done, but not my favorite. Never got the fascination with Kingston Black, but that naturally oaky character is great in blends.
