Dowdings Somerset Breakfast Cider
Dowdings Somerset Breakfast Cider offers a refreshing, light-hearted expression of traditional Somerset bittersweet apples in a sessionable format. Its low alcohol content highlights the natural sweetness and delicate tannins of the regional fruit without the weight of a standard cider. The sensory profile is defined by crisp apple skins and a gentle, earthy rustic charm typical of West Country orchards. While significantly lighter in structure than a full-strength English Cider, it retains a distinct Somerset character with a clean, approachable finish that emphasizes pure fruit expression and high drinkability.
Appearance. Ranging from pale straw to medium gold with brilliant clarity. Pours with a fleeting white head that dissipates rapidly, leaving minimal lacing.
Aroma. Moderate intensity featuring fresh-pressed apple juice and subtle rustic earthiness. Hints of bittersweet apple skins provide a tannic edge, accompanied by light floral esters and no perceptible sulfur.
Taste. Initial impression of sweet apple nectar followed by a mild, balancing acidity. Low bitterness from apple tannins provides structure. The character is very clean, finishing short and slightly sweet with a lingering taste of fresh fruit.
Mouthfeel. Light-bodied and crisp with moderate carbonation that provides a refreshing prickle on the tongue. Zero alcohol warmth is present, with a very slight, pleasant astringency from the pomace.

Item Description: This is made from a blend of apples, with a high proportion of eating apples in there. The juice is allowed to start to naturally ferment but only a little before pasteurisation in order to halt the process. After pasteurisation the juice retains a trace of alcohol, and in reality much less than the under 1.2% on the label. And it is great with breakfast, or just simply as a low alcohol alternative to cider. This is the same juice as in the Orchard Brue Low Alcohol Apple Juice in 750ml bottles.
