Aug 26, 2006 From polypin at La Mare Vineyard, Jersey. Clear orange with no head. Sharp fruity, peely apple flavours, a little acidic, tart. Refined heavy cider, no farmy nose nor cloudiness in this sample. Fresh and citric. Enjoyable.

Jul 19, 2005 Bottle. Cloudy orange in colour. Aromas are apple juice with some sourness and mustiness - smells fairly traditional. Flavours are sweet and tart apple juice with some dryness. Not as farmhouse in flavour as the aroma but still reasonable. The alcohol isn’t really evident until the end of the bottle.

Jun 14, 2005 Bottle. 2000 vintage. Yes, definitely on the fresh and clean side. It had been a long evenin, and this was among the last beverages, but it seemed to still stick out a little bit, some light tart acidity, and a touch of sweet apple. Not the best cider, but quite drinkable/pleasant.

Jun 7, 2005 2000 Vintage. Fresh and fruity aroma. Quite sharp and clean, but not packed with character. I suspect it may have been past its prime - the website says it will keep for 2 years. Bottle, from Hop Pocket Wine Company, February 2005.
