Commercial Description:
K, the cider in that distinctive black bottle, is smooth, light clean - with just the right edge - that keeps ’em comin’ back. Hey these days we’re all looking for something different. Hand crafted in England with the light and refreshing taste of Somerset apples.

Clear very pale straw pour with no head but a champagne effervescence. Sweet apple aroma. Sweet cider flavor. Very bubbly. Enjoyable and not all that expensive.

Golden. The nose is sour and appley. The flavor is a bit too sweet for my taste, and the finish is too still. I like a drier, more carbonated cider.

This has long been my absolute favorite cider, and one I recommend every time. Unfortunately, it’s pretty hard to find in this area. K Cider is a beautiful, gleaming gold, effervescent and bright colour. The smell is dry, slightly sour and vinegary, with crisp, overripe apples and a bit of apricot, as well as a sharp citrussy lemon aroma. As the quote on the bottle states, "K" is "refreshingly different." The sourish dry notes tickle the tongue and leave a crisp, puckering green apple finish. Qualities similar to a brut champagne give this cider a fun, bubbly mouthfeel, all the while hinting at notes of bitter citrus fruit, pears, and even sour grapes. K really is the "ultimate in quality", and at 6.9% abv, is not just tasty, but packs a little strength as well. Deliciously tart and always fun.

Very nice. Golden yellow pour. No head. Served in a champagne flute. This brings out the bubbles coming up from the bottom. Nice aroma and taste of apples. It could stand to be a little drier and less sweet.

Pours honey yellow with almost no head. You probably couldn’t force a head out of it if you tried. Nice taste of apples with a nice moderately dry finish like you would find in a champagne. Aftertaste is a little unsettling. Still, this is dangerously drinkable, sort of liek a wine cooler.
