Cider Crate Tasting Notes:
Smell: Medium aroma. Fresh mid-season peach. Juicy. Light dessert apples.
Initial Taste: Mild bite. Peach pit and skin. Dessert apples. Hint of fermentation. Notes of honey.
After Taste: Peach becomes lighter and drier, becoming the more dominant fruit. Cleans out of the mouth well.
On ice: Slightly reduced fruit flavours.
Additional Notes: Howell Road’s Peach Cider is a light and uplifting cider that’s even a bit tingly. Balanced and not sweet (but not overly dry), it’s refreshing and smooth. Tastes more infused than juice added, making for a thinner mouthfeel. Apples are dessert tasting in nature but have a bit of funk. Cleans out well without lingering elements. Easy drinking.
