Dorset Nectar Foxy Ginger
This Specialty Cider presents a vibrant sensory journey, led by an aromatic burst of spicy, fiery ginger that recalls old-fashioned ginger beer and festive holiday spices. Beneath the pungent ginger heat lies a backbone of sweet, ripe orchard apples, providing a succulent and exotic fruit character. Small-batch fermentation ensures a clean profile where the natural sweetness of the apples balances the ginger's sharp, warming bite. With its light carbonation and approachable 4% ABV, it transitions effortlessly from a warming winter treat to a refreshing summer barbecue companion, offering a complex, exotic profile that is both nostalgic and bracingly fresh.
Appearance. Pale straw to medium gold. Very light carbonation produces a fleeting, thin rim of white bubbles that quickly dissipates. Brilliant clarity.
Aroma. High intensity of fresh-cut, fiery ginger dominates the nose. Complementary notes of sweet, ripe culinary apples and a subtle honey-like floral quality. Clean fermentation with no esters, phenols, or sulfur.
Taste. Initial impression of sweet apple juice followed immediately by a pungent, spicy ginger kick. No hop bitterness or malt flavor is present. The balance is decidedly sweet, though the heat from the ginger provides a counterpoint to the sugar. The finish is lingering and sweet with a notable, clean ginger heat.
Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a slightly syrupy texture. Carbonation is low to moderate, providing a gentle sparkle. Very low alcohol warmth, though the ginger creates a significant physical warming sensation on the palate.
