Review/Tasting Notes:
“Retains all the clean crisp flavours of the apples, with a lovely balance of sweetness and acidity”
The aroma and taste of Sxollie’s Cripps Pink is quite delicate. Subtle floral notes are present in a lightly sparkling cider. Once again, this modern cider lacks in depth. Tannins, fruit and acidity are all pretty much absent. This is a sweet floral drink that we don’t rate very highly.
Verdict:
A sweet floral drink that serves little purpose as a cider. You would be better off with a decent elderflower cider in our opinion.
Rating: This is not a particularly good cider (Mainstream Cider)
