Cryo-concentrated Discovery cider, blended with a bone-dry Aroma/Ellis Bitter.This cider is crafted using a unique production method. First, 1,000 liters of Discovery apple juice are frozen, and the first 300 liters to thaw are collected as a rich concentrate. This concentrated juice is then fermented to around 10% ABV.The other component is a blend of Ellis Bitter and Red Aroma apples, fermented completely dry and aged on the lees in steel tanks for 11 months. The two ciders are then carefully blended and matured together for an additional 2 months before being bottled with natural carbonation.The result is a complex, full-flavored cider with remarkable depth. Versatile at the table, it pairs beautifully with a wide range of dishes.Story on the bottle:In 995, Earl Håkon fled from King Olav Tryggvason, who had come to seize power. Håkon hid with his thrall Kark in a pigsty at the Rimul farm in Melhus. Outside, Olav promised freedom and reward to anyone who killed the earl.As Håkon slept, Kark—fearing for his life—cut his master’s throat and brought the head to Olav. But instead of gold, he was branded a traitor and executed.Thus Håkon Jarl met his end in Melhus, not far from Nidaros, where Randaberg’s lendmann Jon Torbergsson would also fall in power struggles over a century later.
