4.4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 19/20This is absolutely one of the best ciders I’ve ever had.
It is unusually bweautiful for a cider, golden with a very large white head steadily dissipatin to a thin,. lasting head and elaving even a few hints of lace. Most ciders have only a thin, airy head and, regardless of the head size, no head retention whatsoever, much less lace.
The aroma is full, ripe green apples.
The taste is full and crisp. It has ripe green apples, slightly tart, along with ripe sweet red apples. It’s not too sweet and not too dry, with great balance and lasting flavur. A light yeatsy character builds to the finish, really adding to the apple in the lng aftertaste. It has unusually good complexity for a cider.

From the bottle, sample at CBC. Thanks Whitney. Pours a lightish, slightly cloudy straw with a fast fading fizzy white head. Nose is apple, pear, light yeast. Flavor is similar. Fine, English style cider. Much better than most American versions but that does not say too much.

Bottle. Pours clear golden yellow with a large white foamy head that dissipates with some lacing. Aroma is green apple, perhaps a touch of yeast. Flavor is medium sweet, just a touch of tartness. Very little alcohol presence. Light body, a bit watery. Very drinkable.
