Description
På Lekve Gard har det gjennom generasjonar vore drive fruktdyrking, og som ein av pionerane i utviklinga av moderne norsk sider, sette i 2004 Nils J. Lekve sin fyrste kommersielle siderdunk. Sideren var naturlegvis spontangjæra, slik tradisjonen har vore gjennom hundrevis av år i Hardanger, og i 2006 selde han si første flaske på Vinmonopolet. Det har ikkje stått på idéar og nyvinning på Lekve, i dag tel me vel 20 ulike spontangjæra sidrar, og eige brenneri for eplebrennevin og akevitt. Sommarsesongen kan du kome innom i gardsrestauranten på sidersmaking, og Gardsbutikken held ope heile året. No er det Eirik Lekve Eide, 6.generasjon, og Anna Oppedal Tokheim som skal drive tradisjonane vidare på Lekve.

Bottle, 75cl. It pours a clear, very lightly sparkling pale golden colored body. Headless. The aroma is quite weak and neutral, with ripe apple, hints of apple cores and apple jam, some grassy hints and orchard. A whiff of yeast too. It's quite dry on the palate, gently carbonated and full-bodied, with a light warmth. There's a sort of harsh bitterness too, tannin-ish. The flavor is a as the aroma a bit gentle, but quite nice except for the aforementioned harsh thing. Ripe apple, some apple cores, a very light lemon hint and some yeasty notes. Medium length dry finish. Starts off quite nice this one, although too gentle, so I'm more fond of smelling than tasting. Still, sure drinkable. 221102
