Bromlebasse is a limited edition Apple/Blackberry Cider, featuring a distinctive blend where wild blackberries play a key role in the fermentation process. Harvested from the untamed lands of Sandalen Gård, these blackberries actively contribute to the cider's unique character.

During fermentation, blackberry juice and post-press macerated skins enrich the cider. Subsequent filtration interrupts the fermentation process, followed by measurements of pH, SO2, and sugar content (fructose, glucose, and sucrose). The cider is then stored and consistently monitored. Before bottling, a final measurement precedes carbonation, stabilization, and bottling. This relativly dry cider, with 11 grams of residual sugar (10 grams of fructose and 1 gram of glucose), distinguishes itself with a touch of natural sweetness.

Fun Fact: The label carries an extra touch of charm with a delightful drawing by the cider maker's talented 14-year-old daughter.

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

Bottle, 75cl. A big but rapidly diminishing white head forms over a well sparkling lightly pinkish golden colored body. The aroma has a vague hint of berries, not sure I'd recognize it if I didn't know it was there, but it's mostly fresh apple juice and apple peel, a generic fruity note and some grass hints. It's quite effervescent on the palate, mostly on the dry side, with an acidic touch. Full-bodied. The flavor has some lemon juice in the back, along with some berries that I struggle to conclude is blackberries, but at least there's some of that special almost bitter taste known to blackberries, and not that more acidic, fresh raspberry flavor. But of course, apple juice runs the show, with apple peel, some apple cores and grass as sidekicks. Perhaps a bit short finish, but else it's sure a fine berry-cider. 240420

Taste is slightly dry sour-ish fruity, apple cores, sorrel, leafs, hay, flowers, yeast, apple peel, minerals, unripe apples, hints of sour berries. Medium bitterness, slightly harsh sour-ish fruity mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Fair enough, kind of boring.
