Commercial Description:
Our bountiful apple orchard located on the southern slopes of Pinnacle Mountain provides the essential ingredient for this outstanding Ice Cider. Over 12 pounds (5.5 kg) of hand-picked apples go into every bottle, creating an intense, richly-flavored cider that will complement many foods. Enjoy with cheese or foie gras, as an aperitif, with dessert, or as an end note to a perfect meal. Improves with age and can be stored for many years. No additives or preservatives ~ Serve cold

Pours a rather pale yellowish color, and it’s still. Smell is a bit faint, and appley, with some hints of spices, like pie. It’s a bit sweeter than Neige, and it’s a bit tart in the middle and lacks a bit in the finish, it ends a bit quick. Still very nice. Mouthfeel is quite viscuous, and syropy, which is really nice.

Part of trade with beerbuzzmontreal, thanks! 50ml bottle. I was blown away with the level of depth this full bodied cider had. Having only experienced macro cider (Strongbow, Woodchuck, K) this opened my eyes into the complexity that a cider can have. I hope to have more of this.

The worst part of this cider was that the bottle was 50mL. Great taste and complexity. The aroma is faint, but pleasant. The body is pretty standard. The taste is great though.

Pours a translucent golen with no head. Aroma of apples, apple skins, vanilla, pie crust, short bread cookies. Flavor of apples, bread, sweet then just total smoothness. So smooth and tasty, sugar cookie goodness.

Small pour at Vices et Versa from a bottle. Sweet apple pie, apple brandy aroma, cinnamon, granny smith. Rich, fantastically sweet, icy pear/grapefruit/apple flavor. Huge in body and expression.

Golden color with no head but sticky legs on the glass. Aroma of granny smith apples, vanilla, wood, and bread. Taste of citrus, tart green apple, vanilla and alcohol. The tartness was fantastic on the outside of the tongue. Thanks TomDecapolis!

375ml bottle shared courtesy of TomDecapolis. 2006 vintage. Poured a medium golden color with no head. Aromas of, well, apples with some bread. Tastes of the same. Sweet apple start with a green apple tart finish.

2002 vintage. Deep golden coloured, leaving nice legs on the glass. Apple aroma with notes of Danish champagne brus ice cream. Very thick and soft mouthfeel. Sweet and concentrated flavour of apples and grapes. Very tasty, but expensive.
