Straw green color. Savory aromas and flavors of apple vinaigrette, gooseberry and herb jam, and hint of acetone with a supple, crisp, effervescent, dryish light-to-medium body and a tingling, scant finish that shows notes of apples in a wet wicker basket, nut skin, and apple cider vinegar. A savory and rustic Cider for pairing with game.

About
Specialty Cider
Specialty ciders include all ciders that do not fit neatly into other categories. These ciders may be barrel-aged, dry-hopped, spiced, made with single or heirloom apple varietals, fermented with an exotic or wild yeast strain, or any combination of these techniques. Ciders in this category have a diverse set of flavors, aromas and alcohol content. Most specialty ciders have seasonal or limited availability, but are becoming more readily available year-round as the category grows in popularity.
