Sidra Cortina Villacubera Natural (6% ABV, 700ml). A cider made from the bitter-sharp “Villacubera” apples from the Asturias province. Unfiltered, traditionally fermented.
Pours a hazy, pale yellow. Mild, dry aroma of tart apples, some farmyard funk, and yeast. Minimal carbonation from the fermentation, medium body. Dry, green apples on the palate, some vinegar, lemon, with barnyard hints in the background. Sour, lemony finish, vinegary and yeasty aftertaste. Vry dry, but a bit more fruity and sulphuric that some other "natural" ciders from Spain. Refreshing. 7/10
