Bottle, 75cl corked. A clear golden colored cider with a few white bubbles. Not much carbonation going on, but some bubbles rise to the top. The aroma is perhaps a bit rough, at 9% ABV that's no surprise, with apple cores, grass, some alcohol, a light touch of pear, earthy hints and a good dash of almost ripe apple. It's full-bodied, softly carbonated and with a little alcohol warmth, quite dry, with a flavor dominated by soon harvest ready apples. Grass, orchard, apple cores and a touch of green banana. The banana touch sprung to mind after reading the label, and it's just a faint touch of it. Crisp, lightly warming finish with lots of apple flavor. The aroma doesn't promise as much as I hoped for, but the rest of the experience is really nice. Not sure letting it go to an ABV of 9% is the best of ideas though. 210920
