On tap at The London Cider House, pours a clear blonde with a medium white head. Aroma brings out light toffee, crisp apple skins, and gentle tannins. Flavour seems bone dry to me despite the advertising as medium, with champagne-like effervescence and tannins. Complex and well-constructed. Good stuff.

500ml bottle from the New Forest Visitor Centre. Shared with Soph on Elliot, our dalmatian's, 12th birthday. Pours a clear gold. Gentle fleshy fruit nose, lightly caramelised. Flavour profile is balanced, fruity but fairly easy going and gentle with a very mild tannin close. A touch crisp, very fine spritz.

On tap at London Cider House. Pours a clear gold with a white head that dissipates quickly and completely. Aroma has a bright slightly tart apple with a touch of sweetness and a hint of flora. Flavor has same bright slightly tart apple with a growing sweetness in the finish.
