Not terribly impressed. I'm sure this is good in the right setting. I tried this with Jager and Aspall Dry Cider. Cider-washed prune and licorice aftertaste.

Not a fan of shotsmy self so I just pur Jager and my home made apple cider and I like it. I gave to my adult kids that hate licorice and they like it as well. So this one will go to my list as a hiball.

There are many issues with this:
- it was invented around 2005.
- it was invented in Oxford.
- it involves a pint of cider.
- said cider must be cloudy.
The end.

Do you know who created this and exactly where in Oxford? Origin above has previously been unchallenged so be good to know more before I update.
