Cider tasting No#11

Well Mr Henry Weston gets a run

 

 

Well must say after 3 Bottles of Green Goblin this is very very different, a very apple like rase, a touch sweet and a lot stronger at 8.2%. It states on the bottle a 2011 Vintage and another oak aged, must say I do like the flavour oak aged cider produces. It does state a medium dry however I would say medium def but a touch sweet for me, very light in the glass.

Maybe one for a warm day with a seafood salad

Cider tasting No# 10

My Spidey senses are tingling

 

No Spiderman here thank goodness as a savour an oaken drop from the Green Goblin. At 6% it certainly don't feel it, well so far, and a nice dry yet crisp cider, not like Old Rosie this has a pleasant cascade of bubbles, it even has an oaken look about it.

Certainly travels well on the pallet so much so I will definitely have to finish the other two bottles in the fridge n purchase some more.

Cheers all

Ciders not what is seems in Oz

A great article on Australian Cider and the revival it is experiencing in Australia. The fact a lot of Ciders are using concentrates and toped up with 50% water. One thing it did not mention is Pear Cider may only be 5% pear 9could be more but cannot remember)

 

Cider Tasting No#9

 

Well surprise surprise its the Crush from last Sunday and after the dry of old Rosie its not to bad at all, fresh sparky but not to sweet..

Cider tasting No#8

A whole lotta OLD ROSIE!

 

 

As the back of the label states is is light crispy and dry with a light sparkly/bubble. And I tell you what an enjoyable drop it is. One must slowly disturb the sediment to distribute before drinking as it is a cloudy drop, yup looks like cats piss but don't taste like it, not that Ive ever drank cats piss of course.

At 7.3% has a nice heady kick which could land eye in a tad of trouble if drunk to fast, but this is a drop to savour and enjoy.

Cider review No# 7.5

Sitting out the back of the yarragon commercial hotel swatting little pesky bush flies enjoying a top feed I come across a nice cider called crush. Not to sweet or tart a tad like a lemonade but enjoyable on a Sunday arvo
