375mL bottle, pours a clear pale golden blonde with a voluminous, quickly-dissipating white head. Nose is unusual, with a very woody funky character and bone dry apple skins. Flavour somehow seems simultaneously bone dry yet with plenty of sugar, with pear, apple skins, light funk, and lots of wet wood. Unusual but complex and creative. Always interesting these Dupont ciders. Very good.

Dyp noe tåkete gul med bobler. Lukter modne søte epler og noe parfyme eller blomster. Ganske søt med smak av søte epler og litt eplestein.

2019 version is 11% ABV. Copper. Apples: blossoms, reduced, caramelized, even fresh and somewhat acidic. A hint of furniture polish. Linen fresh off the line. Very sweet at first but acidity reels it in a fair bit. This is maybe 14C and maybe a tad cooler might work better. But lovely.

Relatively. heavy crew cap bottle from Finger Lake Bev. They also had the yellow wax version. No easy & obvious production date on these. Had a code: 72131. Lo-ball glass at the hotel, a few hours before my flight back home. Clear, dark, maple syrup pour. Macerated & cooked apples. Lemon & sweet tea nose. Rounded, boiled down bittersweet apple, poke-y but overall weak acid, sweet lemon, tannic sweet tea, paper, corn, caramel, faint oxidation. Lush, moderate acid, low to moderate tart, whatever abv. Very plush. Not bad at all. Needs more contrast. Want something more.
