Rich amber colour, with an earthy aroma carrying some straw and sweet funk. The flavour is surprisingly floral, suggestive of rose blossom, with a peach-like, fruity tang, and a slight bitterness in the aftertaste. Unusual flavours and mouth feel. Really enjoyed this one!

Really earthy under the nose - farmyard, pulp, (manure!) - you can smell the farmer’s field, essentially! Taste. Sharp, acidic. Almost still with the lightest hint of fizz, so faint. There’s not much length here, but the taste makes up for it. It’s quite watery, but still very pleasant. It’s dry too, which I like. The initial taste, and aftertaste remind you of how cider is pressed and where it came from. I’m glad I bought it and reviewed it. (Bought it in the Spar (7Eleven equivalent) in West Bay in Dorset, UK.

I can't actually say I enjoyed this, it tasted far too much like cider vinegar and was rather bland. It grew on me towards the end of the pint, but I simply couldn't recommend it

Amber/orange in colour, pungent initial smell. Very dry, still cider with a very tangy/funky taste which leaves a bitter lasting flavour. Not for me.

Dark orange , still with more turbidity. Aroma of apple and maybe straw or hay and farmyard. Floral apple flavour and a bit tangy with funk.
