This beautifully balanced 5 year-old Somerset Cider Brandy is smooth and complex with intriguing spicy aftertastes.
"The nose is fruity, sweet and floral, like spring in the orchards. There is honeysuckle, apple blossom and hawthorn. The taste is full of apple, with delicate white flowers and a clean lingering fruit finish." - The Somerset Cider Brandy Company.
"...“gorgeous, mellow-yet-warming, richly fruited spirit.” - The Telegraph.
