Snow Capped Cider - Elevation 6352′ (750 mL)
Snow Capped Cider's Elevation 6352' is a traditional style cider made with a blend of French and English Cider apple varieties. From Snow Capped Cidery's very limited Harvest Series, this cider is named after the specific elevation of the orchard block and rows of trees that these apples are harvested from, 6352 feet above sea level.
Old worldly, traditional style. French and English apples blended to provide elegant, semi-sweet flavor and mouthfeel. Perky tannin acid balance. Natural fermentation method. Aged 2 years.
A rare treat, this cider is otherwise exclusively available to members of Snow Capped's own cider club or by visiting their tasting room.
About Snow Capped Cider: Kari Williams' family has owned the orchards she now manages for more than 5 generations - though she's the first to use the apples for cider. Snow Capped Cider is crafted at an impressive elevation of 6,130 feet, making it one of the highest-elevation orchards and cideries in the world. Nestled at the base of the Grand Mesa - the largest flat-topped mountain in the world - on Colorado’s Western Slope. Their unique terroir benefits from high altitude, warm days, cool nights, and gravity-fed mountain water - which impacts the fruit in such a way that makes for excellent ciders. Their cider apples are grown exclusively in Colorado, adhering to traditional English and French orchard practices. Committed to sustainability, they craft high-quality ciders using sustainable farming practices, making Snow Capped Cider a zero-waste company.
Snow Capped has been on an impressive run the last few years at various Cider competitions, winning several awards for many of their recent releases.
