• Gold Medal – Danish International Food Contest 2014 – Fruit Wine of the Year.
• 5 stars out of 5: Vinavisen 2014: “This is not wine, but cider – apple wine. But there is nothing of the usual lightly perfumed and sweet cider about this delicate version. It is a drink with a sea of ​​fine small bubbles, a fresh scent of apples and a pleasantly dry taste with a long and fine aftertaste of summer apples. An incredibly elegant cider that will be an excellent and surprising apéritif for a festive occasion. The bottle even brings to mind a champagne bottle. It reminds you that Denmark produces some of the best apples in the world. The price is quite ok for this fine quality.”
• Vinbladet 2015: “Spicy bitter aroma with apple, caramel, licorice and citrus. Creamy, full-bodied taste, fine mousse and long aftertaste with apple, caramel, dry and spicy bitter note and fine acidity. Beautiful, vinous cider.” 90
