'Udders Orchard Cider

This Specialty Cider showcases a vibrant sensory profile built on the crisp acidity of Yorkshire-grown dessert and culinary fruit. The pour reveals a brilliant gold hue, releasing moderate aromas of fresh, sun-ripened apples complemented by a sophisticated layer of toasted vanilla and seasoned wood from its time in oak casks. On the palate, the cider strikes an elegant balance between medium-dry fruit sweetness and a sharp, clean finish. The oak aging provides a gentle structural depth and light tannins that round out the bright acidity, resulting in a refreshing yet complex cider with a lingering, woody refinement.

Appearance. Deep gold (SRM 5-6); brilliant clarity with no haze; minimal white head that dissipates rapidly, leaving light carbonation beads.

Aroma. Moderate intensity; prominent fresh apple character with the tart, bright notes of culinary fruit; subtle oak presence featuring hints of vanilla and dry wood; clean fermentation with no diacetyl or significant yeast esters.

Taste. Initial impression of tart apple juice and moderate sweetness; develops into a balanced acidity typical of dessert apples; light oak flavor with a touch of wood tannin; no hop bitterness; finish is medium-dry, clean, and crisp with a light fruity aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body; moderate carbonation provides a lively tingle; light alcohol warmth well-integrated at 6%; subtle tannic astringency from oak aging contributes to a firm structure.
