Clear warm golden colour. Aroma of apple, sweet apple, pie, bit spicy. Sweet apple flavour, treacle, syrup. Flat, quite viscous. Finish lingering apple, quite sweet, treacle. Nice. I’m quite a sucker for ice ciders.

Bottle 5 cl thnx to a canadian friend ! Pours clear blonde . Smell is thick, sweet applesauce, with a touch of wood almost . As if it had a perios of aging ( on the bottle , perhaps ? ) Taste is thick, gentle, sweet, bit sharp in the end . Sticky ( as it should be ) with a nice intensity . Yet another damn fine ice cider ....

Thanks to tom10101 for this one! 5 cl. bottle, gorgeous packaging. Split with Martinus @ ZBF 2014. I am having a hard time describing ice ciders so far, I keep winding up with the same words. Pours a clear golden. Intense apple aroma, very sweet, lots of fructose and sugar in the nose, sweet spices, pie. Huge apple taste, explosively sweet, sticky sweet, cinnamon, apple pie, spices, very sweet apple sauce. Sticky, touch agave-feel to it. Mmmmm…..

Bottle split at CBC during the Martin T tasting big thanks to Martin himself, 06/06/13. Clear golden with no head. Nose is apples, light booze, hints of berry fruit. Taste comprises fresh apples, light sugars. Full bodied, fine carbonation, sweet finish. Good stuff, the alcohol is well integrated.

375 ml clear corked bottle shared by beastiefan2k with an assist to Artem and Boris. Pour is brilliant golden, still, with syrupy legs. Aroma is soft apple, warming sugar, and a spice that reminded me a bit of apple pie. Taste is super smooth apple, lightly tart, the sugar is less pronounced in the taste, and certainly less sweet - a bit more of a floral nature. It’s sweet, to be sure, but far from cloying. Palate is silky, medium bodied, pleasantly mouth coating and lightly floral tart finish. Nice one, thanks Eugene and friends!
