750ml bottle, Batch C26 16 at 7.4%. It pours clear orangey golden with a dissipating white head. The aroma is rich, ripe apple, apple skin, a touch sweet, funky, oak, chamomile and light vanilla.The taste is rather drying, bone dry, slightly tart, tannin, oak, apple skin, leather, dried leaves, flinty and a touch of alcohol with a very drying finish. Medium and fine, spritzy carbonation. Maybe a bit too dry and tannic? Decent anyhow.

500ml bottle from Cideronline. Orangey gold colour, short-lived fizzy white foam head and tart funky apple aroma. Taste is mucky apple with woody, barnyard, funk and lots of drying tannins. Medium bodied, spritzy carbonation, dry tangy tannic finish. Quite drinkable

Bottle. This one weighs in at 7.4%. Appearance - champagne type of pop on opening, then steady bubbles. It's golden amber. Nose - another cider with that bitter, sweet and sour thing going on at the same time. An edge of oak at the back, but mainly tart (yet sweet) apples. Taste - bone dry apples, moving into apple skin territory. The oak comes through again at the back. Palate - palate-splitting dryness. Long and lean. Overall - well made, maybe the extreme dryness would lend itself to food-matching.

bottle, in the cellars of Broome Farm, August 2009. Another single variety cider. Not as balanced as many blended ciders, but showing off the character of the Yarlington apple very well. Medium-dry with a bitter-sweet character.
