Bottled@my birthdaybash@Chriso. Golden colour with a small white head. Aroma is sweet apples with some mild sugary notes. Flavour is rather sweet apples and sugary as well. Also some mild alcohol to it. A bit too sweet, otherwise it tasted quite genuine.
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Spritzy, pearling but no head, pale copper liquid. Intense apples’ aroma, mainly sweet, and some kind of aged liqueur, fine, known, but can’t pinpoint it. Inviting! Taste doesn’t disappoint: great flavour with meaty esters and apples, as some haute cuisine apple-venison sauce... would make some spectacular reductions indeed! Sweet, but not cloying with a very welcome apple/malonic acidity. Spritzy, light but slick. Very nice - one to vie with the Québec ice-ciders.

Bottle at Pat’s birthday tasting at chriso’s. One of my contributions! Pours clear gold with a fine, fizzy white head. Sugary apple aroma. Very sweet flavor, sugar, apples. Yep. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Sweet finish, light boozy apples, sugary apples, plain apples. One of (if not THE) best imperial cyders on the market today.

Bottle at Patrik Birthday Chriso tasting. Smells not like a cider. Some smooth apple fruit. Quite sweet on the finish. Fine
