0.33 l bottle thanks to Dina who brought it to me and Dino from Buzdovan for the bottle. Unclear pale greenish golden. Ginger candy aroma. Very peppery ginger. Ripe apple underneath. A bit perfumy. Ripe apple flavour, there is a spicy plastic element, not sure what from. Quite refreshing, moderate to high carbonation. Nice ginger finish. Good balance.

Bottle, thanks Hrabren! Murky orange-tan body. Soft aroma, apple pith, perfumey, green apple peel, leathery touches. Lean taste, very well carbonated, mildly fizzy almost, solid leathery presence, liiightly citric, juicy but not particularly complex. Still, a very good cider!

Bottle, 0.33l. Clear pale yellow pour, no head. Nose is apple, citruses and subtle elderflower. Refreshing sweet and sour combination. Medium body, soft carbonation. Average mouthfeel and texture, slightly chewy and soft. Sweet and sour taste, slight tart. Aroma of fermented apple juice, wine, elderflower. Acidic, citruses. Slightly sticky, sugary notes in the background. Gets a bit dry towards the finish. Good.

Sample, thanks to Grumbo! Clear deep gold, still. Aroma presents the expected sweet spice and caramel. Continues to taste, oily palate, the cinnamon, cloves and caramel all quite prominent. Feel like I should've warmed this up a bit. Decent for what it is.

Bottle, thanks Hrabren! Pale yellow-golden body, light carbonation. Lovely full sweetish red apple aroma with light fermentation effects. Lean taste, Sweetish too, red apple pith, again, some mild fermentation byproducts, not too tart. Very good!

Sample courtesy of Grumbo, many thanks for this one Graham! Golden colour, some short-lived bubbles on top and aroma of spice, clove, cinnamon, apple strudel. Taste is sweet, apple strudel, cinnamon, with clove, spice notes and some mellow light tartness. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, medium-dry finish. Good mouthfeel and well integrated, nicely drinkable.
