THE CIDER
2022 saw a rare generous crop of Barland which were extraordinarily high quality. The juice tasted so good as it was, that it seemed a shame to ferment it and so it seemed an obvious choice for making mistelle. A Rye Whisky cask was selected and the mixture spent 26 months maturing. To make the 324 small bottles a total of 1.8 tonnes of pears were used, each hand picked - around 5 person days of picking.
Deeply complex and delicious, the first thing that springs to mind is prunes soaked in Armagnac. Layers of aroma and flavour; caramel, golden raisins, baked pear, baked plums, custard, brandy, mace, cinnamon, anise. All of the aroma is well supported by the luscious sweetness and the bright, mouthwatering acid.
