Still Dry Fine Perry
The pair of “Still” drinks was the idea of Michael Kaiser from Good Beer Hunting. It was to encapsulate the feeling of stillness and solitude that emerged during lockdown and to represent that in terms of 2 drinks that had been “in barrel” during that period.
“Still” Perry is a blend of mid season perry pears: Blakeney Red, Gin, Winnal’s London and Red Longden, fermented and matured in barrel and bottled coming out of lockdown after 18 months. A soft and juicy still Perry with a sense of being cased in oak emerged with engaging citrus flavours.
Abv 6.9%.

375ml bottle from Fine Cider Co. Sightly hazed golden colour, afew short-lived bubbles on top and aroma of perry pear, fruity, floral, funk. Taste is sweet, pear, fruity, fleshy, woody, oak, biscuit, with some funk, citric notes and tannin. Medium bodied, low carbonation, drying citric finish. Quite drinkable.
