It is clear and golden and effervescent and comes in half litre amber glass bottles to protect it from the light. The taste and aroma are exceptional, a fusion of authentic country flavour and real finesse. It is racked more frequently than the norm, it matures longer and is made only from the juice that the apples release in the first two thirds of a full pressing cycle. It takes about two pounds of hand sorted traditional cider apples to make every bottle of Robinsons Fine Dry Vintage Cider.

Bottle. A birthday gift from the person who is Totnes. Colour of weak tea. Clear as a bell. Constant stream of fine bubbles make for a slim ring of white. Nose has baked cider apple. Some old wood. Tannic and funky. Taste is mostly dry and tannic. Drying on the palate. Bit of a furry teeth thing happening. Fine carbonation. Dry finish, than thins out somewhat. Ok.

500ml bottle. 2011 Vintage. Clear orange golden colour, foam white head that diminishes away and aroma of fruity apple, woody oak. Taste is dry tangy apple, some wood, vanilla notes and light tannin. Slightly watery mouthfeel, medium bodied, low carbonation, dry with tannins in the finish. Quite drinkable.

Quite a nice cider, expected it to be a lot dryer and tanic with Browns and Kingston Black in the mix, but actually had a much sweeter, crisp apple taste, the dryness really just creeping in slightly. An enjoyable cider, although doesnโt really stand out too much from itโs Herefordshire brethren.

Bottled. A dark golden cider with an off-white head. The aroma has notes of apples and apple core. The flavor is sweet with and is dominated by apples, leaidng to a dry, woody, and tart finish.

Bottle 50 cl. Courtesy of fonefan. Pours a clear deep golden with a rough white head. Fresh, sweet apple aroma. Medium body, sweet apples and some sulphur. Dryish and lightly tannic finish. But overall a pleasant cider. 230211
