pét nat style small cider with quince
Hard Rain, made from the second pressing of apples with the addition of water, is our modern interpretation of an old historic drink, ciderkin. We also like to think of it as upcycling pomace.
So into barrel we combined Dabinett and Harry Masters Jersey with two varieties of Quince and left them to ferment spontaneously, before bottling pét nat style. It’s super zesty, refreshing and fruity and naturally lower in alcohol.

750ml bottle from Little Pomona. Gusher on opening. Hazy yellow colour, short-lived fizzy white foam head and aroma of quince, apple, citric zest. Taste is tangy, fleshy, quince, light fruity apple, with some zesty citrus and lingering tartness. Light bodied, fine carbonation, dry fruity quince finish. Nicely drinkable.
