Description
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 thanks to bu11zeye. Pours with a large, and surprisingly long lasting white head over a clear golden body. Aroma of caramel, light apple pie spice, sugar and light funk. Taste is dry apple, light pie spice, fierce carbonation and some funk. Highly carbonated and medium to dry.

October ‘09 O-Town Throwdown. Another huge cheer to Cheeseman for bringing this bottle. Never thought cider could be so tasty and really enjoyed every single sip. ’04 bottle, ltd # 8133 Pours amber./ orange, syrupy/oily in texture. Aroma and flavor, just loaded with apple. Not hints of being 11.5%, gorgeous syrupy eye candy. Harvested frozen on the tree in winter.

Bottle 27,5 cl. Courtesy of TheCheeseMan. Pours a clear deep golden. Intense aroma of apples and overripe plums with some vanilla. Very thick, very sweet apple accents - almost honeyish - yet with an underlying tartness. Again vanilla accents. Lovely. 111009

DC Local Gathering, graciously shared by ygtbsm94. Deep alcohol laced cider aroma, a touch darker than the Eternelle. Orange-tan color, hyper filtered. Some thick red apple taste. Not unlike honey-mead. Sticky sweet, hides the alcohol perfectly. Very mellow. Sugary finish.

Sampled at the DC Local Gathering. 2nd Ice Cider ever. Nose is earthy with apples and a distinct vegetal aroma. Flavor is more apples, sweet caramel. Thicker and sweeter than the Neige. A little salty on the lips, legs like a scotch with a distinct alcohol burn.

Sampled at the DC Local Gathering. This was my first ever ice cider and I had no idea what to expect. Pours a golden amber with zero head. Aroma is nice but tought to describe: sweet, earthy, boozy. Flavor has very nice apples, sweet with a slight alcohol burn. Sticky in the mouth and throat. I guess I didn’t get it.

DC Gathering. big thanks to ygtbsm94. 2004 bottle. Filtered apple juice color. Alcohol laced apple aroma, very intense. Wow! Very big apple flavor. No real carbonation to speak of. All out apple flavor, micro sipper. Honey apple sweetness. Deep red and tart green apples tastes, very complex. Hyper enjoyable stuff.
