FINNRIVER CIDER FAMILY | Special Release

CIDERMAKER NOTES 

Our Special Release ciders often celebrate the spirit of collaboration, interdependence, and deep reverence for the wild bounty that surrounds us—brought to life through the art of co-fermentation. For this release, nearly one thousand pounds of wild-foraged Shiro plums, handpicked from our lush Olympic Peninsula, were co-fermented with locally harvested and organic apples. Fermentation unfolded slowly and at cold temperatures, a method chosen to preserve the plums’ delicate floral aromas and bright stone fruit character. The cider was then gently racked and cold-crashed, locking in a crisp natural sweetness and offering a finish that’s both vibrant and refreshingly pure. Semi-dry.

SUGGESTED PAIRINGS 

Pair with a savory fruit-glazed bone-in pork chop and roasted seasonal squash. Shiro Plum also intertwines well with natural honeycomb or a rich honey-infused gelato. 

APPLE VARIETIES 

Organic Granny Smith & Pink Lady apples, with a blend of locally harvested Gravenstein apples.
