Liquid gold. Really. This single-variety ice cider is made using the Northern Spy apple, a famous NY early-1800s variety prized for baking. Its zingy acidity and apple pie spice flavors make it one of the few single-variety ice ciders that stand up to barrel-aging.

In this case, we use top-of-the-line French oak Chardonnay barrels, which bring just a hint of vanilla and toffee to round out this spectacular ice cider.

Naturally cold-concentrated before fermentation in our Vermont winter weather. Arrested fermentation leaves residual sweetness.

Tasting notes: Baked apple, autumn spice, vanilla caramel.

Pairing suggestions: Enjoy with cheese, maple crème brulee, or butter cookies.

Gluten-free, vegan-friendly.
