70 cl bottle from DIA. A cloudy yellowish pour with a greenish cast to it. Aroma is green apples, lemon, yeast, sawdust, slight funk. Mouthfeel is bone dry, slightly fizzy, tart, low-bodied, short-lived. Easy to drink. Don't be deceived by the score: this is not bad at all.

Sidreria Dakar. Pale straw. The nose is much softer than some of the other sidras I've had. Some apple as well as a bit of tart fruit. Has some good acidity but it seems more malic than many. Fresh and tasty with a very bright tartness.

Bottle, poured from a height. Hazy pale golden/yellow color with white head. Aroma is mealy apples, a touch funky and custard. Taste is mineralic, mealy apples. Silky mouthfeel with low carbonation. Okay, a bit too mealy - there are better Sidras Naturales out there, but this gets better with every sip!

Many thanks top fombe89 for this 70cl bottle. Sourish refreshing beginning. Lots of apples, fresh fruit with a moderate acidity. Not too sour, still lots of fruit there. Round and refreshing with a nice Sidra-typical sulphur sourness, that is not too intense. Fresh fruity sour apples, refreshing stuff.

Thanks to erzengel for sharing!! Pours a pale golden yellow without a head. The smell is sour green apples, minerals and a hint of sweetness. The taste is as it smells with a good sharpness in the middle then going dry with the apple skins at the end. Light in body with a tickle for carbonation.

Bouteille 75cl au Festival Compostela, Bruxelles ’16. Couleur paille, présentant un léger voile, col fin blanc retombant rapidement. Arôme de pomme, rétro un peu acerbe sans avoir le fruité frais verger que l’on retrouve parfois. Palais est assez sec, fruité, pomme verte, avec une petite sécheresse perdurant en fin de bouche. Effervescence reste modérée avec un léger mordant acidulé de la pomme. Ok, mais pas spécialement le meilleur exemple à vernir de cette région.

70cl bottle from some supermarket. @home 1-06-2016.
BBD: crop 2014.
In short: short palated cider.
Pours little hazy dark gold-greenish with vanishing white head. Big "espumona" when poured properly, vanishes fast, little "espalme" and "pegue". Some tart nose. Light bodied, average carbonation, oily texture. Taste is little tart, lots of volatile acidity, little fixed one, fast and vanishing mouthfeel, some harsh acetic notes.

Bardzo dobry Ekologiczny kwasny cydr z Asturii. Metny, gazowany naturalnie, fragmenty jablek i drozdzy na dnie. Kolor zlocisto blotny. W smaku bardzo bardzo kwasny, nie kazdy przez te kwaskowosc przejdzie. Ale milosnicy uczciwych Lambickow sie nie zawioda. Zero cukru, czysty naturalizm i ekologiczne uprawy jablek. Polecam bo do jakosc dla wymagajacych a nie dla poczatkujacych.

Cortina Sidra Natural
In short: A Sidra lacking character where everything seemed muffled. Boring.
How: Bottle when dining in some rustic restaurant in the Picos De Europa Spain.
The look: Cloudy yellow body with no head to speak of.
To me a typical Sidra is: Funky aroma of medium intensity with many light color fruits in the back (not just apples). Body is medium in size, a texture that is both juicy and doughy and with minimal carbonation. Taste is a lot less apple-forward than a regular cider with apples but also various light color tropical/citrus/exotic fruits. Yeast presence accompanied by a bready sensation. Typical Sidras have a mild sourness and ends with a mild-medium acidic bite. Thirst quenching and also a bit nourishing.
This one: As above but with everything toned down. Muted funk, fruitiness lacking a freshness quality, timid acidity, even the carbonation was lifeless (even by Sidra standard). I drank this bottle in a countryside rustic restaurant lost in the Picos De Europa, so maybe the bottle was old, or maybe this sidra is just lame. I’m not the type of person who can hate a restaurant waiter forever just because he sold me a lame bottle of Sidra, but I will however hate him for the rest of my life.
