New Ciders & Ciders selling out
We released our first single variety of Kingston Black this summer. The apples are from our orchard & Kingston Black is considered the royalty of single varieties in the cider world - a perfect balance of soft tannin, acidity and sugar. Add a touch of delicate floral aroma and you have an absolutely delightful cider.
This Kingston Black has a more intense profile than others I’ve tried (from the West Coast of Canada + US), which I think must come from our orchard location - hot, dry conditions leave small fruit with very powerful flavour profiles. This is the first single variety Kingston Black that we’ve seen in Ontario & with the biennial nature of these trees, we won’t get another crop until 2023. There was only a single barrel of cider, so this super rare cider really won’t last long.

The Other One
We have a second single varietal from our orchard this year, which is also from our estate orchard. Yarlington Mill is even more intense in profile than Kingston Black, with a very clove-like aroma, which is typical for this variety.
Like the Yarlington Mill, these apples are very rare in Canada & this is the first single variety Yarlington Mill we’ve seen in Ontario. Again, the flavour profile is more intense than those I’ve tasted from the West Coast & is more similar to the UK ciders made with the same apples.
These apples are frustrating to grow, as they are extremely susceptible to a bacterial infection called fireblight. We cut out about 30-40% of our trees last year. Not sure if we will be able to repeat this single variety in the near future with what is left of the trees.
