SCANDINAVIAN CIDER

What makes Scandinavian cider unique? The answer is special North Europe apple blend. Scandinavian Cider uses a proprietary mix of Baltic varieties of apples, including  Tellisaare , Alwa Suislepp ,Liivi Kuldrenett, Krugeri Tuvioun, and Talvenauding. This combination produces a harmonious blend of acid, tannin, and sweetness. Vohu winery was built in 1976 in Laane-Virumaa county, Vohu village, Estonia near Baltic Sea shore.

The cider professionals came to the conclusion that the apples for the production of the specific type of cider must grow precisely in the climate and on the soil where cider will be produced.

Experts also say that none of the material preserves the quality of the wine or cider as well as cork. This is a 100% natural product that’s safe and ecologically friendly. The secret of cork lies in the fact that it has a unique porous structure. Cork allows cider to “breathe” and significantly improves the flavor of the drink.

Norman-style cider made with Baltic apple varieties in Estonia has also a pear version.

Dry cider (Brut, Dry) is produced and sour apple varieties. Drink strength of 4 to 5.5%, a tannic taste with a sour taste and a pronounced odor of wet apples. Dry cider is perfect for fish dishes, seafood and game.

Unfiltered (Traditional) cider has the smell of slightly overripe apples and a strong acidity with the highest castle from 5.5 to 6.5%. it goes best with good fragrant cheeses, spicy snacks and fatty meat.

Sweet cider (Doux, Sweet) is produced exclusively from sweet varieties of apples and is perfect with desserts, fruit and chocolate.

Tasting notes -. The juicy palate is zesty and reminiscent of Moscato wine, with similarly sweet creamy mousse with a lemon peel flavor and acid that drives through the richness. The Perry is closer in character to fine wine or even Champagne than it is to commercial “pear cider”
