Cider Crate Tasting Notes:

Smell: similar to a standard vodka, little other elements.
Initial Taste: little bite from carbonation, some sweet cranberry. Slightly dank.
After Taste: Apple present in aftertaste, some cranberry notes.  Filmy finish, lingers a while.
On ice: reduced carbonation.

Additional Notes:  Overall, a very watery focused vodka drink with some elements of apples in the aftertaste. The Dixon’s Vodka Fusion (Apple Cranberry edition) is a very basic and lackluster offering with some elements of apple juice in the aftertaste.  Think apple juice with a splash of cranberry and a shot or two of vodka.
