A clear, deep golden color. A fairly simple aroma profile: waxy apples, light orchard wood, funky notes, and a hint of apple skin. The taste is different; the initial impression is of sweet, slightly funky apples—though the funk is less pronounced—followed by very diluted apple juice. Only the finish echoes the aroma, bringing notes of dry apples, woody tannins, and funky yeastiness. I expected something more, I was disappointed!

Bottle picked up at Tesco. It pours s clear golden - yellow with a fizzy white head. The aroma is musty, sweaty, apple skin, apple crumble with custard, ambergris, slightly vinous and white sugars. The taste is crisp, dry, snappy, sweet - sour, crunchy apple, slight pucker, touch of fizzy candy, nip of alcohol and candy with a short, dryish finish. Medium body and moderate, fizzy carbonation. Fancy bottle, fair cider.

I’m no expert of ciders but I dont thin this would be that bad. It has strange aroma, i’ll give it to it, but I think it’s not that undrinkable.

500ml the LCBO. Pretty light pour, its very very pale yellow. Aroma of slightly sour apple juice. Flavour is more of the same, really nothing worth talking about here, won’t be buying it again.
