5% BiB (still). Slightly hazy deep gold with no head. Soft, tart apples on the nose, semi sweet apples with a touch of acidity and leafy notes

Sample courtesy of minutemat, cheers Mat! Deep golden colour, bubbly white foam head that quickly dissipates away and aroma of ripe apple, fruity, barrel hint. Taste is sweet, apple, ripe fruit, with a caramel note, some whisky barrel hints, vanilla, orangey citric and light tannins. Medium bodied, low carbonation, medium dry slightly tannic finish. Nicely drinkable.

75cl bottle from Ludlow Farm Shop. Pours darker than their other standard sparkling cider, with less vanillery whisky notes so I sense other barrels were used. Mild caramelised fruit warmth, moderately sparkling, subtle tannin. Decent overall, no spicy 'festive' elements.
