Alcohol
We did it again. We made another ice-style cider. This time we aged it one month in Calvados barrels. For those of you not familiar with Calvados, it is a brandy made from fermented apple cider in the Calvados region of France. Chez Baco boasts passionfruit and pineapples notes, with the characteristic ice cider sweetness and balancing acidity. Spirited oak character imparted from the barrel adds toasty-brandy notes. Special occasion, housewarming, or just a night cap? You can finish the bottle with friends or pour a little for yourself, and store with a cork in the fridge to save the rest for another night.
Alcohol by volume: 13.6%
Volume: 375ml
Carbonation: none (AKA still)
Apples: 17.5% Northern Spy, 17.1% Roxbury Russet, 14.8% King David, 14.2% Mutsu, 11.4% Golden Russet, 10.8% Cortland, 6.8% Cox Orange Pippin, 4% Spitzenburg, 3.4% Gravenstein organically grown in Oregon
Pairings: Vanilla pots de crème, after-dinner cheese plate (brie, blue, aged gouda), a soundtrack of crickets or frogs (pourquoi pas les deux ?)
When we ran our Kickstarter in June 2020, Mr. Baco contributed at the highest level, rewarding him the opportunity to name a cider with us. Mr. Baco was particularing drawn to this style of cider. We went through about 20 permutations before settling on this one. It was a fun journey through Quebec, Ancient Greece, France, and finally ending in Seattle.
Two Broads Ciderworks is the story of two women who met in San Luis Obispo and bootstrapped a dream into existence. We celebrate apples from local orchards, explore heritage and heirloom apple varieties, and geek out about cider to anyone who will listen.
