Empyrical's new co-ferment celebrates the enigmatic quince. The overripe, tropical aroma teases sweetness, but this sparkling blend is bone dry and perfect for peak Summer refreshment.

Quince cider. 500ml bottle from Press online. Pint glass @home. Clear, frothy, pale gold pour. Looks a bit like a beer. Bitter-sharp, dry pineapple, apple core. Missing the huge floral nose found in the last few west coast quince bottles. Taste is nicely dry with sour fruit, most like floral pineapple & a lingering, bitter-tart apple. Reminds me of softer, more astringent, cold climate-grown quince. Or there is just a lot of undocumented bitter-tart apple in this. Anyway, it's overtly crispy, forced carb, thin, pleasantly astringent with a somewhat hidden abv & it drinks itself quickly. Cheers.
