330ml bottle from Drink Supermarket. Pours a disconcertingly pale green. Aroma of sweet apple pie filling. Mild carbonation. Taste presents floral sweet apple fruit, ripe gooseberry juice, white wine suggestions, generally clean and easy-drinking. Brings to mind a respectable Kentish cider offering. Ok.

330ml bottle. Very pale, only a slight yellow hue, from a distance it might look like water, no head. Aroma of sweet mashed apples and an unusual fragrant white grape vine note. This follows through to the taste with tart apples, fairly fruity but with an almost white grape note. Finish is dry and yes there is an odd salty note. Body is moderate and oily on the palate with a mild to average carbonation. I've had so many similar cheap English ciders it was nice to try something a little different here. I enjoyed it.

9/8/2020. Sample courtesy of danlo, cheers Ed! Pours clear almost colourless, just a slight green tint. Aroma of sweet apples, slightly earthy. A light sour mellows the sweetness. Moderate body, average carbonation. Slight salty sulphur finish. It’s ok.

Many thanks for this craft cider to Jacek Wigier (wineofdreams@gmail.com) Cydr musujacy, bardzo jasny, niemal slomkowej barwy, z lekkim zielonkawym refleksem, fajnie lekko slodkawy ale i lekko kwaskowy. Dosc wyrazny smak jablek odmian kwasnych. Grunt ze malo slodki, poprawny produkt. Na takie duszne i parne letnie popoludnia jest niemal rewelacyjny.

330ml bottle. 4.5%. Very pale golden colour, short-lived fizzy white foam head and aroma of pulpy apple, fruity, sugary. Taste is sweetish, then tart and tangy apple, fruity, green apple, some pip and core, and white wine notes. Medium bodied, spritzy carbonation, medium-dry finish. OK

4.5% ABV. 33cl. Very fruity in the beginning. The cider is easy to drink with an intense fruitiness. A bit watery, easy to drink, refreshing.
