Description
Here at Green Man Cider we believe in doing things properly. Our cider is made only from top quality apples carefully sourced from orchards in Somerset and North Devon. Our apples are selected from traditional sweet, bittersweet, bittersharp, and sharp varieties and given time to ferment slowly to ensure a great balance of flavour and the kind of depth and complexity that you just won't find in factory "cider". Always 100% juice, made with love.

500ml bottle. 'Naturally Dry', I'm assuming it's the same bottle. Pours mksty gold, thin white ring atop. Aroma is a touch pissy, green apple, sulphuric. Taste continues along similar lines, light, gently acidic, bittersweet, soft astringence, some apple skins. Not bad.

500ml bottle from a shop in Mortahoe, North Devon. Pours a lightly misty gold. Aroma is medium sweet pure apple fruit. Taste is fruity yet dry, clearly a high juice content, subtle tannin, nice richness on the finish, but again finishing dry. Pretty good.

500ml bottle from Scrattings. Golden colour, short-lived thin white foam head and aroma of juicy apple, barnyard funk, caramel hints. Taste is green apple, apple skin, woody earthy, some funk and drying tannins. Light bodied, fine carbonation, very dry and astringent finish. Quite OK.
