Somerset 10 year old 70cl

£60.00

Our bestseller the 10 year old Somerset Cider Brandy is made entirely with apples grown and harvested in our traditional orchards. 70cl, 42% abv.  It smells bold, full of apples, vanilla and spice. It tastes fruity with walnut, coffee and oak notes and prunes, vanilla and spice and sherry wood. It feels smooth and full with a gentle astringency. Complex with a Christmas pudding richness, full of subtle bouquets and aromas.

The progression in age is reflected in a fascinating development of flavour and complexity. From fresher, honeysuckle florality at 5 years old; deepening to nutty, prune-like and spicy notes as it ages to a full decade; reaching a mellow and velvety crescendo at 20 years old with baked apples, nutmeg and an exotic woody character.

“An interesting and worthy alternative to an armagnac, cognac or a single malt.”Liquid Companions, BBC Radio 4

Produced in the village of Martock, 20 miles to the east of Taunton *(and the same distance from Glastonbury), this is a delicious alternative to French calvados.” - The Whisky Exchange
