Latest vintage, always completely different blend, via their seasonal subscription.

Mojito glass at home. Intentionally still, pale gold, settled, sweaty glass.
Fruity, mulchy, soft berry, cedar nose.
Fruity, lightweight, sweet apricot, obvious goldrush apple, wine-y, subtle tannins. This is so different from last year.
Thin, creamy, strong for 7.5%.

Good again.

Sample courtesy of Grumbo. Cheers! Aroma of apple and citrus. Taste of apples with a hint of the tropical fruit, but did not get the grapefruit. Lots of apples and aftertaste of apple core. Nice and drinkable.

Bottle from their fall cider club. Cork stamped 02/24. Bit of an error on the abv, as it's listed as 8% in the newsletter & online. Haven't heard back on which is correct. Art is a little... cautionary. Creamy, bold bitter zest, brown fruit, some perky sour funk on the nose. Mojito glass at home. Loud sizzle from within the glass but no eruption. Clear, slightly dusty, mellow gold, quick soda, active pour. Lemon black tea & leather front end, slight creamed floral sweetness that's sort of pear-like, polite bittersweet tannins forming a queue down the middle, a slight bit of astringency to dry out the baking soda back-end. Lingering cured lemon. Deceptive middling acid, initial tartness is hides & that's it. ABV is pleasantly warming. Just a bit of a sulfite headache. Pretty good. More nuance than the Harry Master Jersey from the same farm.

Brown 750ml via their winter cider club. Printed as 7.5%, some places say 8%, the other Black Diamond release is in the same boat. Might be 7.75% & they rounded off. Still waiting on an answer. Pint glass at home during the end of Friday night RB chatz. Clear, honey gold, quick soda head. Veggie, honey syrup, mildly pleasant astringent nose; inviting. Mellow, classic bittersweet, oaky, macerated leaves, slight berry note, spirited acidic bite, dry apple cake, dry cherry, yeasty finish. There's no real delivery here, it sort of just plateaus on a quality but flat note. Dusty, strong pet-nat carb, whatever abv. Decent, if boring. Borrowed fruit, no show. I think our standards are now higher.

Clear 750ml via their winter bottle club. $18 before any discounts. Pretty, clear, raspberry, pomegranate color. Pint glass at home. Sloppy pour, some activity but not much head. Juicy grape jelly nose, boozy, veggy, plastic, waxy freshness. Floral grape bubblegum but not much of a singer. Taste is simple sweet-tart & somewhat oaky cran-apple, grassy, with very astringent & freshly fruity, semi-sweet, easy drinking grape wine. I'm not reading a lot of complexity but it's punchy, thin, has natural carb & goes down well. Fresh & cheap.

750 split 4 ways at Shig's cider tasting. Clear, pale medium gold, hyper-carbed. Soft mushy nose of apple sauce, soft floral, honey, cream. Crispy, mellow astringency, apricot dominant, tart apple mix, light leather, newspaper. Not the best blend this year but great texture.

Bottle thanks to MicroGrog: Poured a golden with a fast-dissipating natural white head. Aroma is apple, graham cracker nose I don't care what the great salty says. Taste is apple, tannins, tangy bitter.

Bottle from their summer cider box. Not their own apples for once. Maybe they'll stop watering things down. Stemless at home. Clear, crisp, oil medium gold with a quick soda head. A bit of activity. Oaky, minty, marigold, unsweet tea, wax nose. Taste is unsweet tannic lemon tea, camomile, lots of oak, mineral water, a little cigar ash on the tail. More bitter as it goes. Very fizzy, more so than crispy. Medium acid, low-mid tart. Thin & spent, brut, parching, a little boozy. Great feel but a little vapid & not as complex as Eve's own.
