Is this out of production? I bought a bottle last month though I guess it could have just been remaining store stock. Anyway.
I’m a bit shocked at how much more I like this than the whisky cask version. I really like whisky. The oaky rum barrel flavors blend really well with the sweetness of the cider. Oak, rum, and apples are well balanced here and very tasty.

Clear gold pour. Smells of apples and a touch of caramelly whisky. The flavor is quite sweet, moreso than I expected, especially given their description of it as dry. The apples are pleasant enough. The whisky is quite mild

This cider has an pleasant enough apple aroma. Flavor is sweet, ripe apples but not overly sugary. Slight tartness. Easy drinking. Rather nice.

Bottle 50 cl. Pours a clear, deep red with a lacing, off-white head. Indistict or even bland aroma of berries/fruits with a hind of butter. Light body, sweet and lightly tart - mostly blackcurrant I guess. Pretty meh, and far from as good as the Strawberry version. 050226

Bottle 50 cl. Pours a clear amber with a small, rough, off-white head. Distinct, authentic strawberry aroma. Medium body, sweet yet tart with distinct notes of overripe strawberries. The apple notes are pretty downplayed. Lovely. 040226

Clear honey golden. Caramel, green apples, oak barrel, candy sugar, hints of scotch whisky. Fruity sweetness, mild dry sourness. Medium bodied, oily texture, soft carbonated, dry fruity finish with some scotch oak barrel notes. A quite heavy cider, tasty, balanced with some nice barrel aging notes.
