Cider Crate Tasting Notes:

Smell: Strong aroma. Sweet, juicy peach with hints of sweet apple and white grape
Initial Taste: Light bite. Hint of sweet apple that quickly taken over by a sweet, sugary peach.  Apple completely disappeared within a moment.  A hint of white grapes replace the apple
After Taste: Peach becomes more candied (Like a gummy peach ring) with a slight brightness to it.  Long lingering with a sugary and white grape juice aftertaste.
On ice: Lighter and more watered down.

Additional Notes:  If you are a fan of peach rings gummy candies, you will love the taste of the Peach to my Bellini by Flair Cider.  Not much apple in this at all, its sweet and sugary – focused solely on a commercial peach flavour. Some white grape juice elements help bring it away from it being solely peach-focused. Sugar elements last a long time in your mouth.
