Kingston Black has a great reputation in the cider industry and we have been making it for almost 20 years. It’s a single variety cider and we use Kingston Black apples that we grow here on our farm. This is a cider that I think will remain in fashion for a very long time.
TASTING NOTES
6.5% ABV
This old apple variety is a shy bearer of high quality, crimson red fruit which gives a refreshingly crisp flavour to this deliciously appley sparkling cider.
Kingston Black is a dry cider with a slight sparkle. It should be served slightly chilled but to experience the best flavour, do not over-chill. We recommend around 8 degrees C. It is an excellent drink to accompany fish, chicken or vegetarian dishes but is equally good just on its own.
