1 litre flagon from Crackington Cider. Clear amber orange appearance. Gently sweety, honeyed cider aroma. Quite a smooth, mellow cider character, in line with Crackington's other ciders, with a crescendo of whisky emerging. Some integrated caramel and honey notes. Light tannic presence. Drinks very well for the strength.

1L flagon. Orangey amber gold colour, some bubbles on top and aroma of apple, fleshy, woody barrel, whisky hint. Taste is sweetish, apple, ripe, fleshy, with whisky, wood barrel, oak, caramel, and some dry tannins. Medium bodied, low carbonation, drying tannic finish with a lingering whisky note. Nicely drinkable.
