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.

Bottled@fonefan. Golden colour, no head. Aroma is white wine, grapes, a lot of vanilla as well as some sour apples. Flavour is sweet sugary mixed with white wine. Mindblowing complexity, even though the sugary notes are a bit too sweet.

2007 Bottle via a trade with thecheeseman. Pours with a still golden body and monstrous legs. Aroma of sweet baked apple and a nice sort of balancing sour component. Taste is awesome with sweet apple and a light citrus zest, sourness. Lightly syrupy mouthfeel. Still.

Bottle, 12%. Sweet and citric fresh apple aroma. Clear golden colour. Thick, syrupy, sugary mouthfeel. The flavour is quite sweet, combined with citric apple, and a good alcohol level. Tastes like canned or pickled apple, concentrated in some way. Flat, no carbonation, and no head. The aftertaste has some concentrated apple juice, quite nice. 7 3 7 3 15

375ml bottle from Torontos great trader, HogTownHarry. Thanks Harry. Nose of contrasting fresh red and green apple tartness and sweetness with some woodiness and light alcohol. Clear orange tinged golden with no carbonation. Flavor starts with a tart burst then fades to sweetness and ends with a lightly sweet finish. Great stuff, too bad it is so hard to come by.

My 1100 rating. 2004 bottle thanks to bu11zeye. Pours a pale gold with amazingly strong legs. Aroma of sweet apple, caramel, cinnamon and a light must note. Very sweet in the aroma. Taste is full and sweet with cinnamon, apple pie, caramel. This is a cider that forces you to smile. Syrupy and sweet, completely mouth coating, but still not as full as Frimas. A great Ice Cider!
