Aromas
Soft and subtle, it offers a long taste of flavours of ripe apples, honey and almonds
Tasting Note
The apples are selected, freshly picked and pressed just after the Fall harvest. This flat cider is the product of a simple fermentation and an aging process in which the cider develops more aroma. It is called "strong" because its level of alcohol is higher than 8%. This level of alcohol is reached by a short process of cryoconcentration in order to concentrate more the sugar from the apples must. This traditional method still respects the old fashion ways and is passed down in the Petit's family for more than a century. At first sight, you can see a beautiful hay-yellow with discreet golden rays.
Le Costaud, is in honor of our great-grand-father Petit and here is the story that is told:
A true force of nature, our great-grandfather would have cleared the
land of the orchard with his own hands and this, in one morning. A colossal work that is still being reaped today.
