3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
330ml bottle at and from Bulmers Harvest Cidery Gisborne, NZ. Pinkish-orange hue, very thin bubbly head disappears quickly. Nice sweet and sour apple aroma with an odd old mahogany wood aroma in there. Moderately sweet, with a touch of acidity. Medium body, well carbonated, slightly syrupy texture. lightly dry finish. I enjoyed this and thought it was much nicer than its 15th percentile rating would suggest.

bought the bottle from LCBO, did not have on tap whilst in UK/ireland as I was sampling whiskies and local beers. Got it real cold, this is not bad for a cider, sweet refreshing esp if cold, not much bitter at end, good.

Bottle 568ml. A clear yellow cider with a small head. Aroma is not too bad, not acid, lightly sweet, not bitter, the fruit aroma is not so huge but this cider is pleasant enough to be tasted. An ok cider, finish is on apple skin and yes tartric.

2.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
568ml bottle. A friend bought 3 boxes of this stuff so I had to oblige him in drinking one! Poured a lively pale orange with a rapidly disappearing white one finger head. Quite a distant aroma of sweet apples. Sugary sweet apple flavour, almost no tartness. Overall, dominated by an abrupt sweetness, not in a cloying or gut rotting sort of way. Short finish, a bit of citrus in the aftertaste. Light body - thin even - heavy carbonation though not as offensively fizzy as I expected. Not the worst cider, easy drinking but very uneventful.
