Cider
Abel Methode Cider is made by us in small quantities, crafted from 100% apples and pears. We hand harvest tree-ripened fruit, crush it, then ferment until dry. This is quite different from your usual cider as we ferment the skins, stalks, pips and all, to maximize fruit aromatics and flavour. Abel cider is unfined and unfiltered. This basically means we allow our cider to naturally clarify via gravity to retain character. It's fermented in the bottle, like champagne. This natural carbonation gives a finer bubble which retains the aromas and flavours. Bottle fermentation adds complexity and texture, as well as giving cloudiness from the natural yeast sediment that remains.
Our cider is dry as this is the way we like to drink it - refreshing and full of flavour! ENJOY You have a couple of options when it comes to enjoying a bottle of Abel Methode Cider: EITHER...Place bottle upright in the fridge overnight, the colder the better. This will allow the natural sediment to settle to the bottom of the bottle. When you're ready to drink it, pour the clear cider (everything but the settled sediment) into a champagne flute or wine glass of your choice. OR...If you like cloudy cider, invert the bottle a couple of times then pour away!

This Brut is a blend of about thirty apple varieties. Some varieties are bitter and rich in tannins that provide body, along with some sweeter, softer varieties providing flavour and balance. This is a light and fruity cider, natural and a little alcholised, but rich in flavour. Best drunk fresh from a wine glass! Can fly solo, but rather good when paired with pork or fish.
Multi-award winning, fruity, medium dry vintage cider crafted exclusively with a blend of the juiciest traditional eating apple varieties. Friels First Press Vintage is made in a limited batch, using Red Falstaff, Katy and Windsor apples from each season?s harvest of Herefordshire and Worcestershire orchards.

From the team at Fruit Cru: ?A flavour unique to Aotearoa and quite possibly the first feijoa Pet Nat ever made. 72 hours of maceration on skins and a harmonious co-ferment of feijoas and heritage apples. Complex and deep, this one is more fruit wine than cider, with soft bubbles and an elegant fruit driven palette. the most graceful of the cru!?

Midi is to Feijoa what Petite is to Quinze. Confused yet? All you need to know is it?s low in alcohol but still tastes amazing. We ferment it using the pomace leftover from our Feijoa cuv?e so it?s really pushing the envelope of what a minimal waste project can achieve. At 3.3% it?s not as light as Petite but much lower in alcohol than our usual offerings, so you can enjoy a complex fizz without the buzz.

From the team at Fruit Cru: ?Refreshing and delicate, Petite is a light bodied spritz with an alcohol volume of only 2.5%. Fermented on auince and crab apple skins for three weeks before being blended with Winter Nelis pears and bottled live.

From the team at Fruit Cru: ?The king is back and still reigning strong. Fruit combinations of Fuji, Gala, Feijoa, Pineapple Quince and Japanese Flowering Quince make this one equal parts fresh, floral and sour with a candy nose and tangy punch.?

Yuzu is a fruit that has been hotter than hot since the craft beer movement put it front and center. Not keen to follow trends, it wasn?t an ingredient we had planned on using, but when Neville Chun (who also grows our Ume) offered us a taste we filled our bags. It?s fragrant and fresh with the unmistakable flavour of Japanese citrus (grown locally in Te Horo). Not quite lemon, not quite grapefruit and not quite mandarin but amazingly vibrant and a very limited production run.
