Hey guys, I made my first cider using cider from a local orchard combined with a preservative free apple juice and 4 tightly packed cups of brown sugar. I pitched rehydrated nottingham yeast and let it bubble away. I went to taste it for curiosity's sake about a week later for kicks and noticed it tastes almost exactly like cough syrup. I know it takes time to mature, but has anyone else ever encountered this nasty taste?
