started fermentation last Nov. , racked first time after three weeks, everything was ok. after two month rhino fart/rotten eggs smell started, I airated with CO2, but the smell remained. it took about 5 months for the smell to almost disappear (There is still a very very week rotten eggs smell ), now after one year I taste the cider; its taste is acceptable but a little bit salty.
I understood that the rhino farts/rotten eggs smell is part of a chemical process where at the end the alcohol reacts with H2S based chemicals....
Does my cider have dangerous chemicals in it? should I throw it? I simply have a big batch.
Many thanks,
