fiulijn (5880), Como; Lausanne (CH); Malmö (SWE), Italy Jul 11, 2008 Corked bottle, courtesy of Ty Yann, crêperie in Paris Beautiful golden color; fine perlage; thin persistent head (half of the surface). It has a very nice aroma of mature apples. Quite good apple flavor, but the mouthfeel is completely dry, tannic, astringent, quite extreme among ciders; a bit woody; almost no sweetness; therefore the final suffers, it’s too dry. It’s a cider that pushes to the extreme tannic character, difficult but different.
