50cl bottle, thanks to Tom. Pours a very pale amber/golden with steady bubbles and no head. The nose is apples, but not very intense. The taste is like a red eating apple and is slightly off-dry I think. The palate has a good structure for the alcohol level and it has a typically long, tangy cider finish.Overall, a good cider.

50cl bottle thanks to Tom. Pours an amazing damson colour - reddish-orange with shades of yellow and it’s definitely opaque. No bubble and no head. When the remainder of the glass was poured, it was a muddy colour and it didn’t clear. The nose is very much sour apple, not quite cider vinegar but there are hints of it. The taste has more extreme sourness, definitely into cider vinegar this time, then it delivers some sweet apple at the end. The palate is very much like a good lambic beer - tight and concentrated but very long. Overall, this appears to be genuine traditional scrumpy, so sour you have to be in the mood for it.
