An incredibly special set of bottles, that will give you a rare insight into the legendary Tom Oliver of Oliver's Cider & Perry; once again Tom went around his amazing barrel rooms, which feature over 100 barrels of former uses (including Chianti, Calvados & Islay Whiskey, among others), & picked some of the tastiest barrels.
Each one is different, & together they form an incredible set of bottles, including rare & local varieties. Displaying different characteristics but all very scrumptious, still & food ready. This mixed case of 6 contains:
MOUTHFUL OF PERRY #2
This second Whitehouse Orchard blend from 2020 blends Blakeney Red & Gin Perry Pears. Once again fermented & aged in former rum barrels, that have made their way to these shores from the Caribbean. Alc 6.8%

750ml bottle from Fine Cider Co. Slightly hazy dull yellow gold colour, no head and aroma of fruity, pear, floral, whisky barrel hint. Taste is fruity, solventy, perry pear, syrupy with initial biscuity notes, mellow, some acidity & tannin. Medium bodied, low carbonation, medium peary finish. Nicely drinkable.
