Henri Michelin - Medium Single Variety Devon Cider
The cider apple, Michelin, was raised in Normandy in the mid-1800's. it was named after Henri Michelin, a noted French pomologist of the time.
Following its introduction in the 1880's, Michelin became very popular in the UK. It has a delicate flavour and is a late ripener. Hasty commercial orchards often harvest them before their golden colour and delicate pink blush announce that they are fully ripe, giving Michelin an unfair reputation for blandness.
This single variety cider is made from Michelin grown in our own organic orchards, and then keeved in the traditional Devonshire manner.
It has kept some original sweetness but not too sweet, with earthy, oak, lime and cut grass on the nose and a slight resinous edge followed Rounded tannins on a finish that keeps a pleasant balance and mouthfeel.
6% ABV - Home Grown from Blossom to Bottle.
