About
Sallandse cider El-Cid is een initiatief van een aantal Heetenaren: Ton de Gee, gepensioneerd dierenarts, microbioloog en liefhebber van biologisch tuinieren en oude fruitrassen, Theo Sas, gepensioneerd kwaliteitsmanager met een microbiologische en chemische achtergrond en Marien Zeilstra met een financiële achtergrond. De naam El-Cid is een afkorting van El(star) cid(er) maar tevens ook van El-Cid, een Spaanse krijgsheer. Zijn standbeeld zag Marien op een fietstocht naar Santiago de Compostella, en hij raakte geïnspireerd door de geschiedenis en de vele verhalen die over El-Cid zijn geschreven.

5.4/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 5 Flavor 5 Texture 6 Overall 5.5
330ml bottle. Pale yellow appearance. Sweet apple juice aroma. Sweet, light, clean flavour profile with not too much going on. Sweet apple fruit, a touch sugary, gently sour, fairly thin bodied, but ok overall.

Sample thanks to minutemat, cheers Mat! Very pale golden colour, afew short-lived bubbles on top and aroma of sweet, apple candy, citric. Taste is sweet, apple flavour, fruity, some citric acidity. Watery, light bodied, light carbonation, drying finish. OK, not much to it.

5.6/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 6 Flavor 6 Texture 4 Overall 5.5
19/4/2021. Sample courtesy of minutemat, cheers! Pours clear very pale gold with a small short lasting bubbly white head. Aroma is sweet, candied apple mixed with sour patch apple. Light funky notes with hint of gooseberry and kiwi. Sweet to start, then picks up some sour patch apple sour, quite artificial tasting. Moderate body, average carbonation. Not a big fan of this.

5.1/10 — Appearance 4 Aroma 6 Flavor 5 Texture 4 Overall 5.5
Bottle, version 2.0 anno 2018. Color: Very light yellow, almost colored water, very thin white head. Aroma: Funky. Taste: Moderate to medium tart, very subtle apple. Pretty much stable funk, probably because there is not much else to taste. Thin, watery. Moderate bitterness. Mwah.
