Sicera Mariane presents as an elegant Specialty Cider with Other Fruit, showcasing a delicate balance of orchard freshness and botanical charm. This rose-hued cider offers a vibrant sensory experience, led by aromas of crisp heirloom apples interwoven with subtle notes of red berries and floral hibiscus. On the palate, it delivers a refreshing tartness reminiscent of wild strawberries and red currants, supported by a light, tannic structure typical of traditional Normandy fruit. The 4% ABV ensures a light, sessionable character, while the high carbonation provides a crisp, champagne-like finish that emphasizes its clean, fruit-forward profile.
Appearance.Pale salmon to soft pink in color (approximately 3-5 SRM). Brilliant clarity with a fine-beaded, effervescent mousse that forms a thin white ring before quickly dissipating, leaving minimal lacing.
Aroma.Moderate to high intensity of fresh apple skin and ripe orchard fruit. Distinct secondary notes of red currant, wild strawberry, and a delicate floral perfume resembling rose petals. Clean fermentation profile with no noticeable phenols or sulfur.
Taste.The initial impression is bright and acidic, featuring tart apple and cranberry-like fruitiness. Minimal malt or grain presence as expected for the style. Hop bitterness is absent (0 IBU). The finish is medium-dry and crisp, with a lingering note of red berry skins and a light, pleasant tannic grip that cleanses the palate.
Mouthfeel.Light-bodied with a lean, refreshing texture. High carbonation creates a lively, prickly sensation on the tongue. Alcohol warmth is non-existent, contributing to high drinkability. Very low astringency from apple skins and fruit additions.
