Bottle from House of Trembling Madness, online. Clear light gold. Mellow pear and sugars on the aroma, nothing particularly distinctive but not unpleasant. Very sweet almost like icing sugar had been added. Pear is there with some tanginess to it. Not the best in truth.

Bottle from Purely Cornish. Appearance - pale yellow, gentle carbonation. Nose - apple as much as pear. Probably apple skin too. Taste - more of the same as on the nose. Palate - light bodied, tangy middle and finish. Overall - ok.

Bottle from Good Life, Polperro. Slightly paler golden coloured cider. Has a fair nose, but is much more stated with its pear in its taste, although this is fast and doesn’t hang around too much in its aftertaste where there’s a general cider sweetness.

500ml bottle from local shop. Golden colour with a short-lived white foam head and aroma of dessert pears. Taste is sweet pear, sugary, fruity with some green apple notes. Light bodied, medium carbonation, residual sweetness at the finish. OK.

Draught @ Healeys Cider Farm, Cornwall. Pours clear yellow, sparkling. Aroma is sugary pear. Taste is overly sugar pear drops. Way too sweet, as expected. One for the kids.

Bottle at a ChrisO tasting - London. Pours clear with almost no colour, but if I had to choose I’d say it’s pale yellow. And no head. Woof, this dog has a rather uninviting nose, all sugary, dank and sweaty pear. Flavor is tangy-sugary pear - and not in a nice way. Light bodied with fizzy carbonation. Sugary finish rife with artificial pear - and sweaty man. Poor. A perry only a hard-drinkin’ perry tramp could love.

Clear light yellow colour with a small small, fizzy, fair lacing, mostly diminishing, white head. Aroma is moderate pear, sweet pear, licorice - anis seed. Flavour is moderate to light light heavy sweet with a average to long duration, pear syrup, artificial. Body is medium, texture is watery to oily, carbonation is soft to flat. [20120506]
