First of all main bottling is done, taddaaa! With help of Lydia we have bottled around 2300 of 75 cl of brut 2022 assemblage 1, all bottled in métode traditionelle blanche/clear bottles. The specific density of this particular assemblage was 1014, which is rather on the drier side for brut close to the assemblage 3 of millésime 2019. However the composition of apples from both of Cotentin and smaller amount from Calvados should make the flavour profile slightly less astringent closer to the brut 2020 assemblage 1, which was however bottled at higher specific density so it was sweater. There is also 220 l of assemblage 1 aging in oak barrel after pommeau with extra 5% (w/v) of honey infusion which should be ready for bottling by end of March or so as micro-cuve assemblage 2. At the moment we are preparing for promoting and commercialization of Cidrerie Jara products. If you would have any suggestions for interesting events in your area or internationally, please let us know. Cider tastings, festivals, markets all of this are of interest. One of the events already planned is Cider Flows in Genève on 18th of March, with local artisanal beer brewer Xavier and his team. Importantly, if you would like to have cider delivered within EU, let us know we are sending now, the list of products and services is here is here. Last but not least both Cidrerie Jara's newsletter and my, František Algoldor Apfelbeck's news letter will be finished within next week and send around, so I hope you will enjoy!
For Cidrerie Jara,
