Detailed Description
This full-bodied, fruit-forward organic cider from Maison H√©rout is bursting with juicy flavor. It’s like biting into a cold, crispy apple followed by hints of orange citrus, forest floor, bitter coffee bean. Slight lavender and apricot on the finish. Full bodied with layered complexity that dances across your palate.
Distillery Information
The H√©rout family farm estate, where Maison H√©rout cider is produced, is located in the heart of the Cotentin Peninsula near the town of Auvers. The apples in this region thrive in its lush and oceanic climate. The H√©rout family began producing cider in the 1940s on their farm in Auvers, Normandy, which is in the AOC Calvados area. As they progressed in their craft of cider-making and became renowned in the region, they turned next to making all their products organically certified. Since then, their daughter, Marie-Agn√®s, has taken over the farm and remains true to her family cider-making heritage by producing some of the finest ciders available from this region. She also continues the family tradition of planting apple trees for future generations. Since 2000, Marie-Agn√®s has led the Syndicat de Promotion du Cidre du Cotentin to earn the region‚Äôs certification for Appellation d’Origine Contr√¥l√©e (AOC) Cotentin status. In May of 2016, after 16 years of hard work and perseverance, her region was awarded the label AOC Cidre Cotentin.
