Henney's Cider

Light golden colour, clear and slightly sparkling

Big apple nose with a slight hint of caramel, well actually a fair amount.

Huge bittersweet apple flavour but smooth. Deep, lots of caramel and no tannin, but there is a bit of dryness to balance the sweet though. Long refreshing aftertaste.

Very easy to drink but has enough going on to be interesting. That’s a very nice drop and on the dryer side of medium.

Certainly one of the better supermarket ciders and well worth getting a box for hot summer days.

Available pretty much from every supermarket. Sometimes lets face it supermarket cider is all you can get hold of so it's worth reviewing them I suppose.

Light golden colour, slight haze and sparkling.

Decent sour apple nose with a bit of yeast.

Big bitter dryish hit initially but mellows quickly to give a nice sharp cider with lots of fresh pulp flavour. Bittesharp but with some sweetness in there to mellow it out. Shortish sherbet like aftertaste leaving a nice tingle.

A very decent little session cider that. They say medium sweet but I’d put it nearer a medium and I think that would be a nice easy drop to drink for a session as there’s enough contrast to make it work. I’d drink it cold though.

Golden, clear and yes indeed still.

Fruity sweet nose.

Interesting flavour. Not the smooth rich flavour I expected but a much more tangy tone. Slightly acidic but in a good way. Mellows nicely in the aftertaste. Not a huge amount of Tannin for a vintage cider.

Even with the acidic zing I can't call this particularly refreshing. It's perfectly drinkable and a bit different, but I think it needs food to balance out the acidity, it's not one I think to quaff on its own.
