AROMA & FLAVOR: Green apple and wine, chalk like minerality on the nose. The edgy and refreshing opening gives way to a balanced mid pallet lemon peel bitter. Herbaceous sweetness and grassy field notes carry through the lingering finish. 

APPLE & FRUIT VARIETI ES: High acid cider fruit like Ashmead's Kernal, Golden Russet, and Belle de Boskoop.

CIDERMAKER NOTES: This cider is a compliment to the farmer, the maker of hay bales, the stewards of the valley. There is much history of using straw and hay as a “cloth” in the apple press ( search rack and cloth press) to make cider. Harkening back to this methodology the cider was run through a very “fresh from the field” hay bale composed of a mixed assemblage of pasture species. The cider is crisp and refreshing and earthy and like walking through a field of fresh cut hay.
