(750ml 2018 dated bottle from the cidery webshop) Pours lightly hazed pale gold with a decent sized white head that fades without lace. Aroma of honeyed golden plums, baking apples, fresh meadow flowers (no dandelions to smell!), herbal salad greens, interesting savoury note, little lemony acidity for sweet-tart balance. Flavour quite tart and lightly sweet, golden plum and acidic apple, fruit skins, lemon and white wine zip, honeyed flowers, light almost peppery herbal quality, that sweet floral pollen vibe really does build into the finish. Light bodied but with a certain thickness on the finish, moderate zippy carb. This is a very delicate cider in some ways, given the nature of the flowers, but it's a really elegant one.

A blonde bubbly cider with a very thin white head. In aroma, sweet mix of apples, light honey, light mineral notes, nice and smooth. In mouth, a nice tart mix of apples, light Brett, honey and ginger, very nice. On tap at Lupulus.
