For my 175th cider comes another from Loch Mór Cider Co of Wellington, Prince Edward County, Ontario. This one is a single varietal cider made only from Harry Masters Jersey apples. Pale amber colour and a deep apple and apple skin bouquet. Initially just off-dry with an intense apple skin flavour and finishes drier. Available only in 750ml bottles. 7.3% ABV. 8.5/10
The description of this cider from the bottle's label:
"A single varietal, naturally fermented cider using Harry Masters Jersey apples from our estate orchard. Yellow plums & fresh apricots and a hint of caramel on the aroma, full bodied that finishes with the slatey, mineral note the variety is known for. Light carbonation. Serve at 10-12C.
A variety from Somerset, UK from the late 1800s. The name comes from the man thought to have discovered the variety. Mr. Masters worked as the miller at Yarlington Mill, Somerset. The 'jersey' refers to the shape of the apple."
