Amber. Aroma is spirit, alcohol, some apple and raisins, very phenolic. Taste is much nut oils, much barrel falvours, bitter alcohol and spirit. Quite harsh and phenolic. Also frangelico comes to mind. Apple finish, also sweet apfelstrudel flavours. Not bad.

Bottle. Deep copper color with no head. Aroma is apples, nutty, moldy cellar, caramel, vanilla. Taste is nutty, cellar, intense caramelized apple, honey, vanilla, oak, gummybears. Viscous oily mouthfeel, flat. Warming nutty finish with booze notes in there. Interesting and very good, but there are better and more balanced Ice Ciders.

Bottle from Montreal Airport; synthetic cork
Measured Final Gravity: 1061
Bright copper-amber color. Strong aroma, stewed apples, caramel, mushroom (porcini), earthy; unexpected but nice. Sweet, syrupy; it has some very interesting qualities, earthy, whiskey, with moderate acidity, a lot of warming alcohol, some oak.
Delicious, different from other Quebec Ice Cider, weird.
