Mira d'Or: Omija

A lambic blend containing 1, 2 and 3 year old lambic from 5 different breweries. On our search for the best fruit, we went to the Elzas region for fully ripe mirabelle plums. The region of Lorraine is famous for it, which is why we decided to buy handpicked biologically grown fruit from there. After a semi-carbonic maceration of 2 months, we added the 1 to 3 year old lambic to the fruit. After refermentation was done, we took the mirabelle lambic, backblended with some more young lambic. To this particular blend we also added a lambic on which Omija or 5 flavor berry was macerated. As the name suggests, it gives the 5 base flavors we can perceive: sour, sweet, salty, bitter & umami. It has notes of rosehip, pepper and citrus.
