Pilton Cider Fire
Pilton Cider Fire is a decadent Specialty Cider that showcases the intense depth of pyro-concentration. It opens with an aromatically dense profile of caramelized sugar and baked apples, reminiscent of a Tarte Tatin. The keeving process preserves a lush, natural sweetness that coats the palate with flavors of dark honey, toffee, and sun-dried raisins. Despite its richness, a delicate tannic structure and soft acidity provide necessary balance, leading to a long, warming finish of spiced pomme. This is a bold, dessert-focused cider that bridges the gap between traditional West Country fruit and the concentrated complexity of a liqueur.
Appearance. Deep copper to burnished amber with brilliant clarity. Pours with a fine, short-lived ivory mousse that settles into a persistent collar.
Aroma. High intensity with dominant notes of cooked apple, dark caramel, and hints of woodsmoke. Secondary aromas include dried apricots, honey, and a faint earthy spice.
Taste. Intense initial sweetness featuring flavors of molasses and concentrated apple nectar. Mid-palate reveals layers of baked fruit and brown sugar. Moderate acidity and light apple tannins balance the residual sugar. The finish is long and sweet with a lingering baked-apple character.
Mouthfeel. Full-bodied and syrupy with a rich, coating texture. Carbonation is low to moderate, providing a soft sparkle. Minimal alcohol warmth is present but well-integrated.
