Can at the interesting Pick & Cheese restaurant in Seven Dials market, London. Golden-amber with a light fizz. Ripe apples, caramel & a gentle, lightly drying farmhouse funkiness. It's not especially complex, but it's pleasant, easy drinking, and was a good match for most of the cheeses we sampled. Decent stuff actually.

15cl bottle sample @ Cider House, Borough Market.
Pâle, dorée, pas de col.
Arôme donne clairement les indications que ce cidre est barriqué - offrant de savoureuses notes de rhum, le tout combiné avec un bouquet fruité surfant entre le floral et 'tart' entre léger effet orange-melon voire quasi d'un vin Chardonnay.
Palais est totalement plat - la barrique perce bien sans pour cela en devenir surfaite - le rhum conserve cette fraicheur de bouche et avec l’apport de pomme cela passe presque plus pour un effet de Chardonnay vineux qui tranche avec une certaine aigreur qui reste cependant assez délicate.

Sample courtesy of Grumbo, cheers! Aroma of tangy apples and vinegar. Grapefruit comes through on the taste with slight carbonation with a long finish. Slightly bitter. This was nice.
