Bottle split at the 'fuck me it's Kenny; tasting, picked up from an online peddler of who I can't recall - Watford, 25/06/21. Clear pale yellow to blonde with a decent white head as it goes for a perry or cider. Nose is waxed pair, grass, straw, apple pulp, quince essence. Taste comprises tangy pear, light funky apple, more waxy tones, figgy notes, orchard wood. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, drying close. Not bad at all ... just a touch on the waxy side.
