Valued for its vigour and heavy cropping. One of the many varieties imported into the country from France in the early twentieth century by Bulmer's Cider Company. Has a hard tannic taste and fast fermenting juice. Permission to use photograph by Kevin Garrod (Monnow Valley Cider) is gratefully acknowledged.
