Mikeys kindly bought it along to taste and is in charge of the pour, a local cider from Oh The Hills in Welsh Wales !! Called "Rosies Wicked Wasp" doesn't taste alcoholic, lovely apply juice taste,
its farmed on LLandegla Moors where we used to go as kids walking and later my cousin who now re-sprays the washers used to take us in his Ford Escort RS Turbo spinning wheels on the dirt tracks !!
