I suggested the Sainsburys Medium Dry Cider was very sweet and wondered what this would be like in comparison. The answer is that it is remarkably similar. Bright copper gold. Quite an acid fruity aroma. Sweet taste with just a touch of sourness. If anything a little blander than the other one.

Colour is golden. Floral aroma like handcream. Taste is sour and bitter with some sweetness. Fizzy. Good for a picnic in the park, it will chill you right out.

Bottled, pasteurised. Yellow gold, carbonated. This is very sweet and sticky with a resinous fructose taste. Does make a reasonable gravy though when no one would drink it. Nasty.

Bottled. One of the few Westons that I find too cloying; sugariness overplays the other flavours and ends up unbalancing.

Bottle. Golden and very still. Aromas are very sweet and syrupy. So sweet that the apple doesn’t really shine. Flavours are sweet apple with wood and sugar with more sugar on top. There is some tartness and there are caramel notes but they are consumed by...sweetness. Sickly.
