Grey Heron

Was fortunate to have this at Perry’s tasting room and to get a bottle back with me in the US to share with friends. II’ll admit that I still rank the Tremlett as my favorite but I do enjoy this one as well. It has the body and astringency you’d expect from a West Country Cider but also a nice touch of residual sweetness. A little cloudy and a little funk at the end but definitely worth finding if you like a cider with body and especially if you’re in the mood for something a little sweet.

Made from Redstreak and Dabinett cider apples from a single orchard. Hazy amber, with a lightly fruity aroma and copper tones. Tangy and sweet with a ripe apple character, and a little funk in the aftertaste. Pleasant and well-made.

Cloudy with some sediment, unusual. Sweet with some fizz, not bad though. I could drink more.

Northern Railway

Slight haze, mild ish fizz and copper colour. Aroma is entirely off ripe sweet apples. Flavour of apple with light caramel. Slightly sweet with a little tang and a little funk.
