Bottle. Clear golden body with a small but decent white head. Aroma is refreshing apple, light acidity and a faint hint of sulfur and some wooden cellar notes. Taste is medium sweet, moderate acidic, quite clean apple, hint of wooden cellar and no sulfur in taste. Fine body and OK aftertaste. A very nice, easy drinkable, straight forward everyday kind of cider. Nothing complex or extraordinary, but this is the kind of cider I could easily have anytime.

2016 vintage bottle shared with Mrs Scopey. It pours crystal clear yellow - gold with a thick, fluffy white head. The aroma is fresh, bright, sweet - sour, zingy, tart pear, sweet apple pie with custard, custard creams abd white grape. The taste is crisp, bright, zingy, sweet - sour, some fruity pucker, sherbet, juicy bright pear, spritzy, apple pie with custard, appletiser with a crunchy pear finish. Medium body and spritzy, effervescent carbonation. Fun stuff and plenty of flavour for the abv. A bit sweet perhaps, but enjoyable nonetheless.

Bottle, thanks Davido. Big pear aroma, lightly spicy, bit of funk. Taste is oaky, bit of plastic, pear. Very nice in spite of what it might sound from some of what I've written. Apple fritters...

2017 bottle. Rather clear golden color with white head. Aroma is pears, quince, vanilla, Bratapfel. Taste is pears, quince jam, cucumber, herbs light butter, rustic earthy, mineraly, very interesting character - I suppose this is how Speierling tastes like? Dry finish, sparkly carbonation, mineraly mouthfeel. Very good! Bonus points for specialty.

Bottle shared at home, bottle from Etre Gourmet. Near clear golden with little bubbles. Sour and bitter apples, clean, rusty and cellar wet and sour and dry. Over medium sour, quite bitter. Medium body and low carbonation. Pretty rough for a French cider. Sidre must be a nod to Sidra & Cidre. Bit unexpected and not really what I look for in a cider but it is nice in its own right. Pretty strong sour for a cider!

75cl bottle from Whole Foods Kensington, shared with Soph in Kensington Gardens on a hot, sunny May afternoon. Pours pale gold, spritzy carbonation. Fairly rich, sweet perry pear character compared to standard normal-priced poirés, tart fruit, drying finish. Comes across like a perry-flavoured crémant. Decent.
