This is the Lucaston Park Orchards Cold-Pressed Pure Fruit Juice Dark Cherry & Apple, made from 70% apple juice and 30% dark cherry juice.

The juice poured an opaque deep red-brown hue. On the nose, it opened with a familiar sweet apple aroma layered with the slightly musky depth of dark cherries.

Served chilled, each sip began with the bright, clean sweetness of apple, which carried a gentle acidity through the mid-palate. As the flavour developed, the darker, more rounded sweetness of the cherries gradually came forward. The cherry profile became clearer toward the finish, adding a subtle richness without heaviness, before tapering into a clean, refreshing aftertaste. The mouthfeel was smooth and polished, with no noticeable pulp, sediment, or astringency.

Overall, this was a well-balanced blend that leaned on apple for brightness and structure while allowing the dark cherry to build quietly in depth—fresh, cohesive, and easy to drink.
