A dark orange cider with no head. The aroma contains notes of apples and some rotten fruit. While the flavor also is dominated by apples - again with a slight note of rotten fruit, but also some acidity. The mouthfeel is smooth, but at the same time sticky.

(Bottle 37,5 cl) Courtesy of Ungstrup. Clear, deep amber golden - no head. Complex aroma of overripe apples. Very full-bodied, extremely intense fruit notes - almost strawberry-like. This really is a desert wine, but one that’s tough to drink and digest. 280907

4.2 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 omhper (17561) - Stockholm, SWEDEN - FEB 7, 2013
Bottled, thanks fiulijn! Clear deep amber. Concentrated aroma of fresj apples. Sweet and viscous with oily mouthfeel. Full bodied, yet soft. Highly concentrated, yet not overpowering, with a huge array of flavour; viola red apples, honey and balsam. Perhaps a bit sticky, but overall one of the most amazing ciders I’ve tried.

Bottle from the La Face Cachée de la Pomme stand at the Christmas Market (Marché de Noël), La Défense, Paris Vintage 2009, 8% ABV Limpid Baltic amber made into liquid. Deep aroma of apple juice, caramel, stewed pears, light aroma of hazelnuts too. Luscious fruit syrup, perfect balance between apple and pear, the right mild amount of caramelized or strewed fruits, and also the acidity is delicate and perfectly balanced. Delicious.

4.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 19/20 Oakes (10941) - Savusavu, FIJI ISLANDS - JUL 18, 2005
UPDATED: JUN 3, 2012 Golden-brown colour with plenty of legs. Woodsy, earthy aroma with a mix of figgy dark fruits and apricotty bright ones...a little molasses in there as well. More complex aroma than the Neige but perhaps less enticing. The flavour on the other hand...oh shit...toasty, woodsy flavours with soft brown sugar, dashes of malic acid, rich clean fruit and the strong suggestion of nutmeg. Exquisite.
Recent vintages have a lot of lychee aroma.
