Column: Wine Chat - CIDER RANGE
If you haven’t been in to visit us lately you might not have heard about our brand-new cider range, Eighth Day. Though we are yet to start promoting, we thought we’d let the good people of Tamborine Mountain have first dibs on this delicious new range. Eighth Day consists of four ciders: The existing Pink Lady and Granny Smith, which make up our core range; and two exciting new additions, the Ginger and the Rosé.
An alcoholic drink made from the fermentation of apple juice, the term ‘hard’ is used to indicate alcoholic content, distinguishing it from its sweet American counterpart. Hard ciders can be dry or sweet, and their appearance ranges from cloudy and sedimented to near-transparent.
Cider typically maintains a fairly low alcohol content because the apples used to make it are naturally low in sugar. Even sweeter apples tend to have far less sugar content than grapes. During fermentation, yeast particles source energy by consuming these sugars; the byproducts of this process are alcohol.
