Heartland Ciderworks - The Little Rose (12 oz)
The Little Rose is a low-alcohol rosé cider, made in the style of a ciderkin with some added red-flesh cider apple juice.
After the juice is pressed from crushed apples, the pomace (chunks of apple pulp) left behind is rehydrated and pressed a second time. Enough sugar and flavor remains in the pomace to create a second cider. In this case, a small amount of fresh redflesh juice is added to the second pressing before fermentation of this ciderkin to add acidity and complexity.
Delicious and sessionable, this cider is just 3.65% ABV - fitting in that it could be your everyday cider option. It's got a touch of sweetness, some tart red-fruit flavors beloved in redflesh apples, and a nice acidity, and doughy body to it.
