Hello. Apologies for not responding to this sooner. I think I know what you mean. I sometimes get what I describe as an 'alkaline' flavour in certain ciders. This isn't something I've ever heard as being a fault but I do think the degree to which is perceived can certainly effect the drinking/tasting experience. If it's subtle and doesn't overwhelm the other flavours I think it's fine. Otherwise I think it would have to be considered a fault. Not sure what the cause is. You're question makes me want to find out! Do you remember which cider it was? C
@@corkcrown1828 Thanks for the answer. Stonewell Cider from Ireland. Not sure if it can be found in GB. It wasn't strong just a slight taste on the aftertaste.
Hi Chris had a cider at the weekend which had a chalky flavour on the finish have you come across this before and is it an off flavour thanks
