Sweetness: Semi dry; 1.005 specific gravity (1.3% brix)

AROMA & FLAVOR

A foundation of bright citrus in this cider is layered with a smooth whiskey depth and spicy rye spirit. A fine, craft cider that showcases American oak, Northwest rye whiskey, and Washington organic apples. Woody astringency balances the acidity, and then finishes with lovely toasted oak and vanilla notes.   

AWARDS

2018 Double Gold, SIP Northwest

2017 Good Food Award

PAIRINGS & SERVING SUGGESTIONS

Sip as a stand-alone beverage while watching the sunset or savor its complexity around the campfire. Pair with heartier foods like roasted chicken and veggies, stewed rabbit, smoked salmon, or bratwurst with kraut and stoneground mustard. Or caramelize an onion with Oak & Apple Cider and add to a dish for a feisty meal.

PRODUCTION NOTES

Fermented in stainless steel tanks at low temperatures to capture the full ester profile of the apples. Once fermentation is complete, this cider is then aged for 12 to 15 weeks in whiskey barrels from Woodinville Whiskey in Washington and High West Distillery in Park City, Utah. The oak gives the cider a liquid gold color. Sweetened with organic cane sugar. The Oak & Apple was a 2017 Good Food Awards winner.

APPLE VARIETIES

A select blend of Certified Organic Washington apples from the Yakima Valley.
