Bottle purchased in montreal. Dark copper, with alot of sticky lacing on the glass. Aroma is incredibly sweet, loads of brown sugar, apple pie, and sugar soaked apples. Viscous sticky mouth feel, with loads of caramels. The oak appears in the finish, light wood with some vanilla, and more juicy super sweet apples. The alcohol comes through in the end as it warms my throat. A great desert drink, but in tiny amounts.

Poured from leftovers (thanks fiulijn). Clear copper with no head. Earthy mushroom upfront with sweet stewed apples and light booze. Dry and earthy. Quite different from other Quebec iced ciders, but enjoyable.

Sampled from bottle shared by SinH4 @ hotelroom tasting after Borefts 2018 Day 1. Clear amber color. Very intense rich apple flavor, heavy, clearly detectable high ABV without becoming annoying though. Apple peel. Some sugry notes. Slight tart as well. Decent.
