Sweet Sparkling

Golden colour. No haziness and moderate fizz. Ripe apple aroma with leather. Flavour has spice and raisins. Smooth and rich.

Rich, golden colour, with an aroma of light wood and spice. Buttery fruit flavour, with leather and spice tones, the spice becoming more pronounced in the finish, suggesting mace and allspice. The combination of sweetness and spice makes this an enjoyable dessert cider, with a good degree of complexity.

It's late October, I drank it room temperature. A perfect winter warmer. A nice golden, rich chunky cider with a tasty spicy flavour on the palate that lasts into the finish. This is now an accomplished cider.

Much sweeter than my usual tipple but just what my wife would choose.

The pour is a clear light amber with medium effervescence. The aroma is sharp and tannic apple. The taste is sweet apple with a slight tartness. The finish is long astringent and phenolic. Its okay but I wish it was a little less sweet. I would have enjoyed it more with a little more tartness and acid coming through. I wouldn’t turn it down, especially after a hot summer day.
