Bottle at home ... HUGE thanks to Goldorak for this one when he passed through Edinburgh ... crisp light amber ... sweet fruity apple nose ... sweet apple ... oh so sweet ... but at the same time crisp like biting into a tart apple... fulll boddied ... little syrupy ... definite apple bite in back of throat.

375 mL bottle from Whole Foods Market Glen Allen, VA. Pours a clear pale gold color. Big rich apple aroma. Deep, earthy and sweet with a tart twinge that lends an almost spicy and citrusy note. Taste is tart apples. Very tart but also a sweet note. Thick mouthfeel, full bodied. A nearly portlike character overall. Good cider.

50ml bottle, purchased in 10/05. The cider threw some sediment in that time. Reddish color that was clear before I mixed a bit of the dregs in. The aroma is cinnamon, tart apple and some dark fruits. Oxidation is present, but not in a bad way, though the cider wouldn’t seem to be able to age much more, at least not in this size container. Taste is tart apples, wood, dark brown sugar and a prominent dark caramel or toffee flavor. There is enough here to enjoy the small drink that I get, but I’ll bet it is much tastier a little more fresh.

Bottle (375ml), 2006 vintage. Pours a clear, very pale gold with no head. Nice aroma of tart apples, sparkling white wine and some sweet honey. Flavour of tart apples, some wood, alcohol and a bit of sugary sweetness. Medium bodied. Not as syrupy as I’d like and a bit boozier then necessary but those are just nit-picks and this is quite good.

Pale yellow body. Aroma is deep apple, with honey, some wood, flowers and some spices. Flavor is sweet apple, with a bit of sourness, a bit of alcohol, honey and some wood. Very good!
