This Heritage Cider expresses the rugged character of fruit grown at high elevation, showcasing a blend of five heirloom apple varieties. The aromatic profile is defined by crisp, fresh-pressed apple juice with nuanced undertones of seasoned oak and earth. On the palate, it delivers a sophisticated dry complexity where vibrant acidity meets structural tannins. Subtle wood notes provide a smooth, rounded frame for the tart fruit, leading to a clean and persistent finish. Its refined balance reflects the concentrated flavors of mountain-grown fruit, offering a crisp, refreshing, and deeply aromatic experience that celebrates traditional cider-making techniques with heirloom-driven depth.
Appearance.Brilliant clarity with a pale gold color. Effervescence is visible but produces no lasting foam or lacing, consistent with a clean, still-to-sparkling cider presentation.
Aroma.Moderate to high intensity of fresh apple and floral esters. A distinct heirloom character provides depth, accompanied by light spicy and vanillin notes from the oak. Clean fermentation with no sulfur or diacetyl.
Taste.Initial impression of tart, sun-ripened apples. The profile is medium-dry with a pleasant balance between fruit sweetness and firm acidity. Oak integration adds a light woody flavor and structural tannins. Finishes dry and smooth with a lingering apple skin note.
Mouthfeel.Medium body with a smooth, slightly creamy texture. Moderate carbonation provides a lively sparkle. Subtle alcohol warmth is present but well-integrated. Minimal astringency from the heirloom fruit and oak.
