Black Bart

Описание

This cider has a subtle oak flavour and has been sweetened with sugar. Why Black Bart? Well, the cider barn has a date stone 1829 and is attributed to Sir Watkins Williams Wynne Bart. Some of the apple varieties in Black Bart are ‘Kingston Blacks’ - a vintage cider apple. The cider is part matured in barrels and then I spotted Black Bart (aka Bartholomew Roberts) in a book about pirates. He spent a great deal of the early 1720’s plundering shipping around Barbados - the cider had to be called Black Bart!My customers wanted a sweeter cider and Black Bart satisfies this requirement, without being ’sickly’ sweet. At shows and festivals, Black Bart is usually my first barrel to empty.Winner 2011 Royal Bath & West ShowWinner 2011 Three Counties Show
