Gold color. Aromas and flavors of cinnamon, gingerbread, vanilla, and cinnamon roll with a velvety, crisp, petillant, dry-yet-fruity medium body and an interesting, medium-long finish displaying touches of apple fritter with clove, vanilla cream frosting, cinnabon, and sweet cinnamon. A light and flavorful choice with good balance of fruit and spice flavors.

Common ciders range in alcohol from 4-8% and typically feature dominant apple aromas and flavors. Most are not dry, but also not cloying, with a sweet, medium body and acidity. This style is what the majority of consumers associate with hard cider. The descriptor 'common' is in reference to the types of apples used to produce these ciders, rather than in reference to its quality of ready availability. Common ciders are produced from culinary table apples, typically including varietals such as Golden Delicious, Jonathan and Macintosh to name a few.
