Cider Crate Tasting Notes:

Smell: Medium aroma. Sweet and juicy smooth berries

On ice: Reduced overall flavour and carbonation, more wine -ike.

Additional Notes:  Crimson Cider’s Berry Cute is a blend of clean raspberry cider with some semi-sour dessert apples that finishes with a bit of smooth strawberry.  A touch of earthy element in the long-lingering aftertaste, its overall quite uplifting. Smooth, naturally sweet.
