Commercial Description:
The production of Crown Cider (Krunesider) is built upon the tradition of cider production which has existed in the Hardanger region of Norway since Cistercian monks first planted apple trees in Hardanger in the thirteenth century. Kalfarets Kultur AS is furthering this tradition in the mountain caverns located at Kalfaret in Bergen, which were once used by Hansa Brewery. In this way, Kalfarets Kultur AS has created a Cava culture in Norway, not to mention a Norwegian version of Champagne. While the Catalonians and the French use grapes, Kalfarets Kultur AS press Hardanger apples which are hand-picked in the most beautiful and pure orchards in Norway. Bottle-fermented, natural sparkling, made from hand-pressed apples. No preservatives or other artificial ingredients are added.

A fine surprise to me, I actually found this to be a very nice and refined cider. Very floral upfront. While it possesses a vast amount of residual sugars, its light medicinal character, phenolic and warming, rummy alcohol feels like a worthy compensation. More yeast character than anticipated, perhaps leathery. It deploys a competent acidity to back up the sweetness and the growing alcohol sensation never restricts the important refreshment procured from the drink. Firm bodied, gently carbonation - the latter enhancing the perceived dryness. Good stuff really.

Bottled, thanks Papsoe! Hazy pale yellow. Citric nose with lots of green apples. Fruity with restrained yeastiness and a fair amount of citric acidity. Refreshening and vinous with concentrated flavours. I like it!

Bottle. Once again Papsoe Big thanks for sharing. No visible head or lacework. Colour was light cloudy pale golden. Very nice mix of fresh apples and pear, some citrus. Medium bodied with a lively carbonation with a light alcoholic texture. Flavour was light acidic with good fruity sweetness. Sweet finish.
