Very attractive-looking bottle bought in Morrison's as a new region rate. The cider inside looks pretty good too - a glowing, crystal-clear pale gold with a lovely sparkling (but not excessive) fizz. Pleasing aroma of fresh eating apple - a sharper variety, like Braeburn maybe. On tasting there's a surprise hint of straw and just a whisper of farmyard funk up front, but mainly it tastes of sweet, juicy apple juice. There's some dry apple skins that come through in the finish but not enough to offset the sweetness. It's got a good full mouthfeel though. This was much better than I expected, and I rather enjoyed it, but it has the potential to actually be rather a decent and elegant cider if only the sweetness were toned down.

330ml bottle – Pours a clear sparking pale gold colour with a fizzy white head that quickly dissipated. The aroma is sweet fruit; apples apple with some pear-like notes. A sweet taste, desert apple and light stewed apple flavours with a light dryness in the finish. One for those who like a sweet cider.

500ml bottle from Morrisons. Eye - very pale yellow, very brief fizzy white head, high levels of fast carbonation. Nose - quite a floral green apple aroma, sweetness. Taste - the floral apple note comes through strong, quite sweet - almost confectionary like, slight dry finish with apple skin notes Palate - medium, slightly sticky, spritzy. Overall - quite nice, somewhat different to the ciders I've tried before. Proof once again that ciders don't all taste the same!
