    April 2, 2024 - "There's a lot of fish at Montrose Harbor" (Chicago, IL): I honestly expected this to be a little more mature. It drinks very youthfully, and while there's a little more of a subdued, calm quality to this, the intense essence of pear is still on full display. Brilliant and consistently one of my favourite drinks.

    November 24, 2023 - Never had one with this much maturity -- it's still quintessence of pear with tons of minerality and freshness. Low alcohol makes this thirst-quenching and refreshing. Simultaneously easy and complex.

    June 23, 2020 - This is a really enjoyable cider. Very easy to drink. Tasty and complex and a bit different.

    May 2, 2020 - Not sure how to score as a point of reference so almost a holding score based on enjoyment and obvious quality.
    Stunning. Fresh light and very much off dry with good acidity. Light bubbles makes me think of a sparkling Kabinett pear style.
    Has that mix of sweetness, complexity and acidity but in a lighter fresher package. Only 5% alchohol and from 300 year old pear trees I read.

    September 12, 2019 - This just never disappoints. We used it as an early sipper to whet the appetite for the bordeaux coming later. Light and easy and yet still quite complex and different. Very enjoyable.
