Comes in a 750ml champagne bottle. Made from 80% Dabinett and 20% Bramley apples. Tart fruit flavour with plenty of skin, becoming woody and bitter in the aftertaste, with strong tannins. Pleasing flavour profile, though lacking in a defined oak tone, which I would have expected from a Ross cider. Still, robust and drinkable, and a worthy companion to a strong-flavoured cheese.

Golden, very cloudy and too much fizz for me. Aroma of damp wood and grass. Woody flavour. A little tart and a little bitter. Soft tannins to finish.
