About
We're a free-thinking craft cider company that doesn't like being constrained. In fact we only like making craft ciders as naturally and as simply as possible - using the very best fresh apples, small batch techniques, wild yeasts and 100% juice. The resulting ciders are full of depth, character and as near to perfection as we can get them

Bottle at the Full Monty. Orange-amber color. Dry apple and mineral nose. Dry, very dry flavor, dust, dried flowers, minerals. Very fascinating but a bit too dry to drink a lot of.

Bottle from Grape & Grind, Bristol. Deep gold in colour with moderate carbonation. Dryish apple fruit aroma with a touch of oak and pleasant suggestion of cheddar cheese. Flavour was fruity, sweet to start with, before a dryish finish. Good.

Bottle from Cobbs Farm Shop, Near Froxfield, West Berkshire 31.01.12 consumed 02.02.12 Pours gold with a very light orangey/red hue (only slight) medium carbonation. Tangy at first with sweetness, softish in mouth, but some good punchy and juicy fruity flavours. Nice bittersweet cider, little dryness at end. Good stuff. A7 A4 T7 P4 Ov14 3.6

Bottle from Cobbs Farm Shop, Near Froxfield, West Berkshire 31.01.12 consumed the same day Pours clear gold heading towards light orange, superbly clear with bubbles and a white rim. Good nose, slight wet moulderyness, wet wood cobwebs and slight earthiness. The taste is maybe not quite as good as the aroma and the carbonation is a little too much but its good, sweet initially but then finishes dry, woody, slight rustic feel, soft in the mouth with a juiciness and tangy tartness. I like it. A8 A4 T7 P3 Ov14 3.6
