Description
My name is Robbie Fleming and I set up a cider and perry micro-business in 2022, Fleming’s Fife Cider, in order to be able to sell what I make each year, which is less than 400L. 2022 will be my sixth harvest, but just my first since setting up my business.

The taste is crisp, bone dry, tart, puckering, leathery, tannic, lemon - lime, sherbet, crunchy tart apple, white wine vinegar, sherbet, some zingy citrus, grapefruit, salt & vinegar crisps, picked gherkin, oak and a nip of alcohol with a dry, puckering finish.
