Bottled Conditioned Ciders
Sparkling cider bottled early with a small film of yeast to allow conditioning within the bottle.
Clear Sparkling Ciders
The cider is fermented completely and a small amount of sugar and yeast is added an during bottling. The spent yeast is later removed using similar methods to those used in the production of champagne. The result is a clear sparkling cider.
Natural Ciders
We have produced a cider with absolutely no additives, just fresh pressed juice left to ferment with wild yeasts. This style of production is said by purists to produce the best ciders, but is rare in commercial cider factories. If the 'good' yeast does not multiply quickly enough, some wild yeasts can render the cider undrinkable. Yet, in small amounts these same yeasts can impart a complexity of tastes that is extremely desirable.
Perry Ciders
Our cider house is located at Reidsdale which was once known as Irish Corner due to the large amount of Irish who settle there. Many brought with them their favorite perry pear trees. We have been able to locate a few of these trees in remnant orchard and have produced a small batch of very good perry. |
