Pierre Huet - Cider & Pommeau Bundle
Pierre Huet - Cider & Pommeau Bundle
Snag this bundle of products from one of Normandy's most beloved cider makers and distillers. This 3 bottle bundle includes:
- Cidre Bouche Brut: A classic dry cider from Normandy, with surprising complexity and notes of green apple skin and ripe apples, and a finishing hint of tangy citrus. Full bodied with loads of personality. Pair it with just about anything - hearty meals, vegetarian meals, seafood, cheese, charcuterie.
- Cidre Demi-Sec Pays d'Auge: Traditional French Demi-sec (semi-dry) cider from the appellation d’origine protégée (AOP) in the Pays d’Auge region of Normandy. Fermented one to four months, followed by secondary fermentation that occurs naturally in the bottle
- Pierre Huet Pommeau: French-style apple ‘mistelle,’ a blend of fresh juice (called ‘must’) and brandy. Historically, in western France, fresh apple juice was blended with cider brandy to preserve the flavors throughout the year. This operation, known as ‘mutage,’ was done quietly on the family farm and, for centuries, the method was a closely guarded secret. The result became the local apéritif, called Pommeau - from ‘pomme,’ meaning apple. A fine Pommeau blends strength, sweetness and delicacy.
Pierre Huet’s Manoir la Briere des Fontaine, is a family-owned estate, located in Normandy, in the heart of the Pays d’Auge region, which has its own Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée (AOC). They are renowned throughout the region for their calvados, cider, and pommeau. The Huet family has gained recognition worldwide for the subtle and delicate blends they produce after generations of distilling.
