Western Cider - Dry & Dandy Pét Nat 2025 (750 mL)
Western Cider Company's Dry & Dandy is a Pét Nat cider released annually. Made with cider apples grown on Western's orchard in Montana's Bitterroot Valley. Every year the “D&D” is a bit different from the previous harvest - apple blend, quantity, profile, label color/details, etc. It’s not meant to be duplicated or consistent. We hope you like this year’s iteration!
A refreshing blend of Wickson Crabapples, Golden Russet, Binet Rouge, Harrison, Porters Perfection, and Bulmers Norman apples. Bottled at the tail end of primary fermentation in the pétillant naturel style. Rested for 6 months. Lightly hazy, ripe pineapple aromatics, eminently drinkable.
Taste alongside the 2023 vintage to get a true sense of time & place and how each season's harvest produced different ciders from the same orchard.
About Western Cider Company: Founder Michael Billingsley and his wife Arielle planted a cider apple orchard in 2010 in Montana's Bitterroot Valley - an area with a rich apple history. Inspired by traditional cider cultures from around the world as well as modern American cider styles, Western Cider Co. is committed to making cider for everyone - from easy-drinking to complex, affordable and high-end, traditional and experimental. Their traditional ciders are crafted using cider apples from their own orchard, neighboring orchards in the Bitterroot Valley, and apples gleaned through their Community Cider Collaborations. Their easy going ciders use apples from their neighbors to the west - Oregon and Washington. One of the few ciders in the U.S. who makes a wide range of both modern and classic cider styles, all done exceptionally well.
