Bottle shared at the Martin T tasting, CBC Clerkenwell - London. Cheers! Pours clear gold. Smells gorgeous, lots of super ripe apples, apple sauce. Delicious, very sweet but still balanced. Full bodied, fine, oily. Lightly warming finish, more ripe and gooey apples and apple sauce character. Awesome.

750mL bottle, pours a clear pale blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out light-medium sweet apples and a touch of brown sugar. Flavour brings out light-medium sweetness, some apples, toffee and caramel. Very soft on the palate, with a caramel finish. Very good.

Light green colour. The aroma is green apple and light sulphur. Dry, apple skin taste with light fruit, a light fermented off note. Balanced sweetness in the finish allows it to drink quite nicely.

Bottle pour, much thanks to mcberko for the share on this. Always love trying these ice ciders. Some of the best tastes in the world. Crystal clear apple juice pour with no head. Sweeter than expected red apple aroma. Like a spiced apple sauce. Flavor is generously sweet and thick. The right kind of sweet. Not overwhelming or candy. Pleasant, with a bold backbone to it. Leaves quite a lasting impression. Purely a magic potion here. Love it.

375mL bottle, pours a hazy golden copper. Aroma brings out treacle tart, caramelized apples, and toffee. Flavour is highly sweet even for an ice cider, with toffee, treacle and caramelized apples. Loads of caramelized apples on the finish. Not the most complex ice cider, but it's certainly decadent and well-made. Excellent.
