Sampled from 0.33 l bottle from 'House of Goods'. Clear, golden amber with a thin, fluffy, quickly diminishing, white head. Sweetish, slightly sourish, moderately fruity aroma of ripe apples and some wood. Gently sweet, a bit sourish, quite dry and rather fruity taste of ripe apples, some walnut and a bit of wood, followed by a short, slightly tart, rather dry and a bit woody finish. Thin body, minimally astringent and gently effervescent mouthfeel, average carbonation. Nice, well-balanced Cider!
