Ampleforth Abbey Cider 50cl

A strong, bottle-fermented dry cider, made from the produce of Ampleforth Abbeys own orchards. Pours slightly sparkling, a fizzle of white head. Pleasant earthy apple with hints of mushroom, phenols and woody oakiness in the nose, quite citric apple accented in the mouth with a woodiness in the background and a developing sweetness as it warms, slightly tart in the finish with apple skin dryness lingering. Apples have been grown at Ampleforth, the country's northern-most commercial orchard, for well over one hundred years. Today, the orchard covers more than 2 hectares, with some 2,000 trees and more than 40 varieties of apples, including Ribston Pippin, originating from a tree grown locally at Ribston Hall in the 17th century, Ashmead's Kernal, Vista Bella, and Beauty of Bath.
