About
Jaanihanso is a family owned cider house and orchard on a historic farm dating back to the 18th century. Our family bought Jaanihanso in 2000. Our knowledge of the farm’s history originates from the papers that we found from the house, and from older villagers stopping at our gate to reminisce about the “old days”.
The renovation story of the estate has been in sync with our own growing pains. Some years with larger construction works, some years not that much, but there has been constant mutual bettering. In 2013, when the last bits of the house had been refurbished, the car had to move out from its brand-new pigsty-turned-garage to make room for cider. Famously, a garage is the best place to start a venture.

Bottle at a tasting. True French style cider. Soft tannins present. Very nice mix of med-light sweetness, light tartness, even less sourness and bitterness. Really nicely selected apples mix, expert work done here. Very tasty, very easy drinking.

Bottle pour gifted by mcberko. Thanks for saving us some of this one! A nice reddish orange pour, clean and shiny. Aroma is full of brown sugar and cinnamon spice, and actually covers up the apple fruit. Taste is super smooth, quite thick. Cinnamon spice is dominant, and finishes with a smooth apple pie warming touch. Really interesting cider here. I could drink this by the pint.
