This is an incredibly special cider - made from a single tree in North Adams that held onto its fruit late into the Winter. Our assistant cidermakers harvested this tree in late February, discovering apples that were overwhelmingly tannic and bold, and totally unexpected.
The name of this cider is inspired by those dark winter days, and the idea that the best things happen in their own time.
All of our ciders are dry and sparkling. They may remind you of white wine or even champagne. This is traditional cider for a modern table, made right here in the Berkshires.
Each fall we receive fresh-pressed juice from local orchards and ferment slowly during the cold Berkshire winter. We age these base ciders in French wine barrels or neutral tanks for 6-12 months, before blending and bottling.
We’re obsessed with traditional cider apples. These often forgotten varieties are like grapes to wine, with distinct levels of acid, aromatics and tannins. We even import juice from the UK to supplement what we can’t find locally (yet!).
