Dry is a shape-shifter — equally at home at an upscale meal as it is over drinks with friends. The secret to its success is all about the apples: Cider-specific varieties make for dry, complex cider, and there’s no better apple for cider than the tannic and bittersweet Dabinett. Dabinetts aren’t grown in large commercial quantities in the United States — though we’re working to change that. Dry begins with juicy New England dessert fruit and then blends in fermented juice — never concentrate — pressed, fermented, and shipped by our friend Simon Day at Dragon Orchard in Herefordshire, England. The result bridges cider traditions from both sides of the pond for a cider that’s tannic and tremendously tasty.

Can, pours a clear pale dull yellow with a quickly-dissipating white head. Nose brings out crisp green apple skins and a nice fairly subtle farmhouse character. Flavour is very crisp, with a lovely potent crisp green apple skin character and a nicely integrated farmhouse character that makes this more interesting than the average dry cider. Very good.

Can -- Nice funky apple with some Cooked Apple. Clear gold. Light tartness and apple peel tannins with a very dry finish. Good amount of acidity.
