Occasionally it’s true that “less is more.” Take the organic apples in The Hatchet: the smaller the fruit, the bigger the flavor. But picking the smallest, most intensely-flavored apples is the easy part. It’s what happens next that matters, the blending and balancing, pairing sweet and tart varietals to yield a refreshing cider with noticeable complexity and a crisp, clean finish. It’s the hard cider equivalent of alchemy: turning little organic apples into great big flavor.
On to the Tasting Notes:
Upon initial opening of the bottle, bursts out aromas of apple, some slight sweetness, and a touch of funk. On the palate this cider is very well balanced. Dry and crisp with tart green apple flavor and a nice rounded carbonation. An extremely drinkable, well crafted, cider that is amazingly balanced and quite refreshing. A steal at this price!
Food Pairing:
Pairs well with all of your favorite flavors of Fall.
