Description
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

500 ml bottle. Cooked apples, skin, a bit of sharpness in the nose. Deep orange-amber color. Tannic, woody flavor, nicely sharp as well, nice touch of acid and tannic, juicy apple but not very sweet. Good stuff.

Bottle bought online in Japan. D/b May 2019. Tannic nose with frah and baked apples, some caramel and spices. Deep orange. Cloudy, with lace. Nice rich apple with some sweetness, lots of tannins too. Really not all that sweet overall. Some sharpness as well. Full body, light carbonation. Nice.

Bottle bought online in Japan. D/b May 2019. Rich apple nose, baked apple, light chalk, quite a bit of tannin. Deep gold with lace. Dry and tannic, a bit puckery, apples, skin, minerals. Much drier than the Barn Owl, a lot more tannic, not so tart. Nice stuff, a bit drier than I like, lots of tannin, but a nice apple flavor too. Very light carbonation.

Bottle mail ordered in Japan, still quite fresh it seems. (D/b 5/19) Nice nose. Apples, some sharpness, some dryness, mineral, skin. Cloudy deep orange with lace. Flavor is slightly funky barnyard apples, green apple skin, light chalk, bit of citrus. Complex, balanced. Dry finish with enough sweet fruit to make it easy. Great refreshing dry tartness on the back of the throat makes you want more. Light carbonation, tannic body. Like this one.

Box @ JDW Montgomery’s Tower. Pours a misty gold. Aroma of fresh apple orchard. Taste has a ripened fleshy apple fruitiness, well balanced with light must and soft, mirage-like tannins on the finish. A great, fruity cider this.
