“
Honey, like sweet mead or sherry”
Certified cider flavour standard used to train professional beer tasters to recognize and scale the intensity of honey character. Ethyl phenylacetate is produced by yeast during maturation. At low concentrations the compound imparts a pleasant sweet honey-like note to cider. At higher concentrations the flavour resembles that of mead or sweet sherry.
