Sparkling Medium Dry Fine Cider
This batch of keeved cider was spotted by maker Martin as being something different, way back in the winter of 2020. With complex fruit & a delicate balance, it stood out as being worth particular attention, something special on its own. It was first left to ferment with a succession of wild yeasts in a tank for six months, then transferred to delicately smoked second-use whisky barrels for the same amount of time.
Confident rounded tannins, soft delicate fruity sweetness & mature acidity on the finish. A briny sea blast through the smouldering embers of an orchard peat fire! Fermented with wild yeasts & aged in peat-smoked Islay whisky wooden barrel. Alc. 5.5% vol.
