Description
The Robinson family have been producing cider in Tenbury, “The Town in the Orchard”, for well over 200 years, the knowledge passing from father to son for at least eight generations.

In 2005, that irrepressible cider-making gene emerged once more. Robert Robinson decided to refurbish the 70 year old press the family held on to in 1959 and press apples to make cider for public consumption again after an absence from the market of almost 50 years.

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.

Draft @ Prince of Wales, Ledbury. Nice to see Robinsons doing a draft cider. This is a golden coloured, medium dry and lightly sparkling cider, accessible and pleasantly fruity without diving into the sweetness too much. Very nice.
