The last batches remaining from our Spring ‘25 releases:

1x Late Season Keeve: (Not included in the Summer Club box) A cider we make annually using traditional French keeving methods, which involves extended maceration of the pomace and racking the cider many times over the course of fermentation, resulting in a naturally clarified, residually sweet, lower ABV cider. Late Season is pressed from some of our finest antique varieties: Golden Russet, Baldwin, Wagener and many others from Pender Island. All of these lend an earthy and sharp dimension that beautifully balances out the sweetness. 6% ABV, 750 mL.

1x Bittersweet Pét-Nat ‘24: ((Not included in the Summer Club box) A new vintage of one of our favourites—combining bittersweet apple cultivars and the pétillant-naturel method. This has a classic, complex English profile with its low acidity and notes of rich toffee, ripe fruit and leather, making it a great match for rich cheeses, salty meats and nutty snacks. The apples were grown onsite at our Lupin Road  orchard, established in 2016. The main varietals were Dabinett, Bulmer’s Norman, Michelin, Kingston Black and Yarlington Mill. Serve lightly chilled. Ancestral method, 2024 harvest. 6.5% ABV

1x Kouf Orchard Pét-Nat ‘24: (Not included in the Summer Club box) Down an oceanside road on North Pender Island grows a pocket of incredible apple diversity, cared for by the Kouf family. Planted in the 1970’s, the trees were first established by a past orchard owner named Bertine, who is remembered as a keen apple enthusiast determined to fill every space of the small acreage with apple trees. While some of the varieties are common around the Gulf Islands, such as McIntosh and Wolf River, many of the trees are genetically unique varieties she propagated from seed. Wayne and Karen Kouf have spent the last few years reclaiming many of these apple trees from the brambles and hedgerows, bringing what is left of the original orchard back into use.

This is a wide, balanced mix of mid to late season varieties—lower acid, with butterscotch and fruit leather vibes. Ancestral method, 2024 harvest, 7% ABV
