Lindisfarne - Limited Edition (farm shop only)

Indulge in a truly unique cider crafted from a distinctive blend of Discovery Rosette, Sommerseth Redstreak, and Ellis Bitter apples. This limited edition cider undergoes a refined fermentation process using white wine yeast, under controlled temperatures, and an unwavering commitment to preserving the integrity of the fruit.

The cider is filtrated then aged for several months, where every step is taken to shield it from the intrusion of oxygen. The result is a unique rose cider boasting a heightened tannin profile, a departure from the ordinary in the realm of Norwegian ciders.

Cider maker Jo A. at Sandalen Gård attests that Lindisfarne is a cider he cherishes, a testament to the craftsmanship and dedication poured into every bottle. With only 200 bottles in existence, this limited edition Lindisfarne cider promises a refined experience for those fortunate enough to savor its exquisite blend.

This cider was awarded the gold medal certificate in the 2024 Cider World Competition.

0,75 flaske fra gårdsutsalget, delt med Einar, Synne og Mamsi: lys rødgylden med fint bruseskum. God eplearoma og -smak, men den har en tynn kropp med for mye syre. Frisk ettersmak. Synne likte den godt, hun fant toner av jordbær og lime.

Bottle, 75cl, from trade with Bryne. It's a quite well sparkling pinkish golden colored beer with a rapidly diminishing white head. Some bubbles cover most of the cider all the way though. The aroma has a touch of butterscotch and berries. A bit surprised about the berries though, as I think it's apples only here. Might be tricked by the color. Fresh apple, some grass and forest hints. Feels sort of sweetish. It's quite effervescent on the palate, with a gentle acidity and some sweetness. Medium body and just a tad of alcohol heat. The feeling of butterscotch is present in the flavor too, and in general the flavor is pretty similar to the aroma. A bit short finish. A decent cider, but not a favorite of mine. 240404
