Our Favorite Perry - Classic & Innovative Pear Variety Packs
Whether you love perry or just getting into them, this is the kit for you! We put these variety packs of perries together so that you can explore various styles of perry from the U.S. and abroad. Each bundle option is curated based on our favorite perry bottles available right now, and two fun themes: classic perry styles, and modern & innovative approaches to perry making.Ā
Perry is mare similarly to cider, but instead of being made from apples, itās made exclusively from pears. This differs from a Pear Cider, which is a blend of both apples and pears. Perry styles can range from sweeter and fruity to semi-dry and tannic, depending on the pears they are made from. One thing all perries have in common is some level of natural sweetness, due to pears containing sorbitol, which is an unfermentable sugar. While you will notice the sweetness more in a modern-style perry made from eating pears, the sweetness in a traditional cider made from perry pears are typically balanced by tannins.
