Blu(i)sh
A wild apple & blueberry cider
blu(i)sh is a cider of apples and wild blueberries from Maine, co-fermented naturally and then aged in used oak barrels for eight months before bottling. Secondary fermentation occurs in bottle, which is what gives it a light effervescence.
This is a dry, precise, elegant cider.
