Torkard

7.5% abv

A 1:1 mix of ripe Dabinett bittersweet apples and very ripe Conference pears which were milled and fermented together. So therefore this is a "Pider". We decided to experiment a little with this ferment and use the QA23 cultured yeast rather than the wild yeast ferment we normally use. This has left a level of residual sweetness which suits the lightness of this pider from the pears and the soft light tannins from the cider apples.
