Harrison from Haykin Family Cider I haven't tasted many of their ciders, but there is a discernible "terroir" from the cider house. Very interesting cider house! From the cidery- "Yakima, WA - Harrison was one of America’s oldest cider apples and here prior to the founding of the country. It was thought to be lost but a tree was found in 1976 in NJ and brought back from extinction. The cider is bright and refreshing, the perfect warm weather drink. The finish is citrusy, reminiscent of orange peel and coriander. " Reviewed on 30 Dec 2018 4 likes

Castañón Sidra Natural from Castañón Excellent sidra natural. Be sure to pour from a meter high or the CO2 won’t break out. This a much cherished sidra natural. Reviewed on 24 Oct 2018 3 likes

Ver de Espera Slow Cider from Bodegas Viña Elena y Restaurante Loreto This bottle that I received in August 2018 was marked consume before 2017 L-0115. When is that? Definitely at least 8 months ago. There are funny flavors and aromas. Maybe they wouldn’t have been there a year ago... But there is a delicious undertone. This was an excellent cider in its day. Reviewed on 12 Aug 2018 2 likes

Sidra natural from Llagar Germán Good Asturian Sidra Natural. Dry. High acid. If you like the simple table sidras from Asturias, give it a shot. More character than some, less presence than others. This could be a year old and dryer/thinner than a younger bottle. Reviewed on 26 Aug 2018 1 like

Cidre Brut from Ecusson Nice apple presence and flavor. Not too dry. Good acid balance. ~4.75 g/l malic. I tried an Asturian sidra natural about 5 minutes ago, so the one seemed a little doux for brut. :-) Reviewed on 26 Aug 2018 0 likes
