Cider Crate Tasting Notes:

Smell: Strong aroma. Juicy watermelon and watermelon candy aspects. A touch of light culinary apple.
Initial Taste: Minimal bite. A quick, medium sweetness watermelon juice that is slightly candied but also natural. Honeydew notes.
After Taste: Some apple notes emerge, light and fleshy. Watermelon continues strong and lingers. Hint of rind at the finish.
On ice: Thinner bodied. Minimal change flavour-wise.

Additional Notes: The Perth Farmhouse’s Watermelon Cider is a modern and fun flavoured cider that delivers strongly on the promised watermelon. From start to finish, you get a strong watermelon flavour – candied, a natural juiciness and even a hint of rind at the finish. The fleshy apple cider is there but it’s not balanced with the watermelon. A long lasting flavour profile. A medium sweetness, but not sugary. A quintessential summer cider.
