About
Formerly known as 'La Face Cachée De La Pomme' and 'Domaine Neige' but those names no longer legally belong to François Pouliot. But this is the same orchard where the original ice cider producer continues his business after losing his trademark names in a legel settlement with his former business partners.

Bottle - Nice cooked apples. Clear gold. More cooked apples, much like an ice cider, but not the depth nor mouthfeel. Nice, but if it is going to taste like an ice cider, I would rather have the ice cider.

Bottle at Pre-GBBF Shindig 2015. It pours clear deep amber with a quickly dissipating head. The nose is rich, juicy, unctuous, sweet apple pie, pear, toasted sugars and candy. The taste is crisp, bitter- sweet, oily, apple pie, candied stuff, cinnamon, alcohol warmth, nice fruity tartness and some Golden Delicious apple with a slick finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Brilliant balance and high drinkability. Damn tasty I say.

Bottle sample @ Troy’s Bday tasting @ Stein & Vine. Thanks Chad. Dorée, pâle, qcq bulles pour un fin col blanc. Arôme de pomme caramel, pomme pressée avec un agréable bouquet fleuri et odorant fruité. On y retrouve un nez un peu plus prononcé venant probablement de l’ajout de cidre de glace. Palais est pétillant avec un fleuri agréable, pomme, légèrement sec en fin de bouche sans être râpeux et trop astringent. Le mariage fonctionne entre un cidre et ce cidre de glace. Le résultat reste cependant assez surprenant surtout au niveau des sensations de cidre de glace nettement plus doux et du pétillant.

Bottle, pours a deep dark brown with no head. Aroma is super rich, with dark fruits, toffee, and apple brandy. Flavour is along the same lines, with super rich brandy, apple, dark fruits, and toffee. Amazing depth to this. Absolutely divine stuff.

Bottle, from the cidery, bought in 2012. Cloudy, light brown. To be fair, it doesn’t look like much. Oxidized appley aroma, with delicate spiciness....but not the sticky syrups I associate with face cach�e. Sweet, with a caramelized, sirop de Li�ge character with deep dark caramelized fruits.
