Alpenfire Cider Ashmead's Kernel
This single-varietal New World Cider showcases the storied Ashmead's Kernel apple, delivering a sophisticated sensory experience defined by sharp acidity and aromatic depth. The profile opens with bright notes of lemon zest, heirloom pear, and a distinct nuttiness characteristic of this heritage fruit. On the palate, a crisp, structural tartness takes center stage, balanced by a subtle honeyed sweetness and a lean, mineral finish. Its refined effervescence enhances the vibrant fruit character, making for a refreshing yet complex cider that honors the unique, organically grown source of its tannins and acids.
Appearance. Pale gold to medium yellow (SRM 3-4). Brilliant clarity with a light, fast-fading white rim of bubbles and no lacing. High, fine carbonation is visible.
Aroma. High intensity of fresh-pressed apple character. Distinctive notes of citrus peel, green pear, and a subtle nuttiness. Clean fermentation profile with very low floral esters and no detectable phenolic or sulfur compounds.
Taste. Initial impression is sharp and refreshing with high acidity. Flavors of tart apple skin, lemon, and a hint of wildflower honey. Finish is bone-dry to dry with a lingering, clean tartness. No bitterness is present, though a mild tannic structure provides a lean, drying grip.
Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with high, prickly carbonation. Notable crispness on the tongue with a slight, pleasant astringency from the apple skins. Well-integrated alcohol provides a very subtle hint of warmth.
