75 cl bottle @ home
Bottle bought from the cidery last summer
Aroma is rather leathery with ripe apples and some acidic notes. Flavour has leathery tones, floury apples and minerals. Finishes with mild gastric acid tones. Somewhat fizzy palate. Drinkable but nothing special.

27/XII/16 - 75cl bottle, straight from the farm @ Tim's Christmas Tasting - BB: n/a (2016-1492) Thanks to Erwin for sharing the bottle!

Clear orange cider, aery off-white head, pretty unstable, non adhesive. Aroma: very funky, slightly sweet, sour apples, farmhouse yeast. MF: ok carbon, medium to light body. Taste: little sweet, lots of carbon, apples, bit funky, sourish. Aftertaste: yeast, apple skin, some calvados, funky, bit sweet, apple juice. Nice one! Very pleasant as an aperitif!

Clear golden colour, no real head. Aroma of apples, barnyard, apple peel, some pear. Brett and lactobacillus. Sweet apple flavour, tart notes, apple peel, light citrus. Light astringent touch. Finish apple, funk, lingering yoghurt notes. Another great cider by this lovely farm, they continue to impress me.
(From 75cL bottle @ home, bought at the farm. No BB date, but relatively fresh bottle.)
