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.

Taste is sweet sour-ish fruity, ripe strawberries, sour apples, grass, minerals, fruit stones, alcohol, red berries syrup. Medium bitterness, slightly sweet sour-ish fruity mouthfeel. Fair enough, a bit too dominant sweet strawberry touch...

Bottle, 375ml. A clear, still and headless pinkish red cider. The aroma has some nice apple notes, but mostly it's raspberry. There's a vague grassy, orchardy touch in the far back. It's medium bodied, a bit sweet on the palate, with a pleasant low carbonation label. The flavor has more focus on the apple, but still with plenty of raspberry. Hints of grass, bark and a touch of apple pie. Sweet raspberry and apple finish. A bit on the sweet side this one, but quite nice anyway. 220316

Bottle, 150cl. It's a clear, sparkling pale golden colored cider, headless, but with some white bubbles on top. The aroma is mellow and apple driven, with some grassy hints and apple cellar. It's full-bodied, lightly warming and faintly sour, with apple dominating the flavor. Some apple cores, grass and alcohol too. Lasting finish. A very smooth and delicious one, but I was expecting more complexity. Dangerously easy drinkable. 211231
