Review: Oaked Sour Cherry by Jefferson County Ciderworks

Review Date: July 4, 2019

Sweetness: Semi-Dry

ABV: 6.60%

Cider Maker’s Description

Boasting flavors of oak, stone fruit, whiskey, vanilla, tart cherry and crisp apple, this is a wine-like, semi-dry, big flavored cider. It is refreshing and rewarding to your tongue, drinks like a sour fruit beer or sparkling rosé. It is crisp, tart and smooth. We add lots Michigan Montmorency cherry juice on the backend of fermentation and age this cider on a toasted French oak, leaving behind a flavor that will linger from sip to sip.
