An orange/gold, still, organic cider from a farm in Herefordshire. There are some subtle apple notes in the aroma, together with hints of farmyard and wood. When they say dry, they mean it with this cider. Uncompromisingly dry and tannic on the palate. There are petrolly notes. The fruit has been almost entirely fermented out, although a faint vestige of apple appears towards the end, before disappearing into a crisp and tart finish. Although filtered, this is a serious hard cider, but refined rather than rustic. The overall impression is of austere classiness. Not for anyone who likes a bit of sweetness. 750ml bottle (filtered) from Hop Pocket Wine Co.
