Bottle, 75cl corked. A lightly unclear, golden cider with some white bubbles on top. Lots of apples on the nose, with some faint booze notes. Orchard, a little sweetish touch and some cinnamon notes. Guess the cinnamon thing is just my mind playing games. It’s a bit too effervescent, it’s full-bodied and quite tart, yet with residual sweetness. Some booze in the flavor too, but mostly just pleasant apples. Lasting finish. A rather wonderful cider, but I would like it less carbonated. 120623

Bottled. 75cl corked. Yellow-golden, almost clear cider with no head. Looks unfiltered. The nose has lots of sourness, yeast and apples. Lots of green apples in the flavor, with yeast, barnyard and sourness. Medium body with a nice astringency lasting to the very end. Lovely cider actually available in Norway. (070430)

Bottle, 75cl corked. A clear, lighlty sparkling yellowish golden cider. Lighlty cellarish nose with lots of pleasant apple scents. Some orchard notes. It’s full-bodied, dry and maybe a bit effervescent, but really pleasant on the palate. Delicious flavor with apples and orchard and a faint cellerish note. Semi-sweet, with a tart touch. Overall, certainly a tasteful cider. 120623
