BITTERSWEET | Heirloom Series 7.2% abv

Bittersweet apples are the backbone of traditional English cider and are some of the rarest apples in Canada. We grow several of these prized varietals, which can be heart breaking to grow, yet produce some of the world’s finest cider. An off dry cider expressing the classic phenolic character of this coveted fruit.

 

RUBY ROSE | Canadian Invasion Series 9.9% abv
