This is our first harvest from the orchard we now lease from the Land Conservancy. We got enough rain in 2020-2021 winter to dry-farm these 20 year old trees. They are the tastiest Braeburn we've ever had. We decided to let the native yeast ferment this cider because we wished to express the full character of the orchard. The result is a bright, lemony, medium bodied cider, with light barrel character on the finish.
