Hersir

Описание

HersirIn Viking Age Norway, a hersir was a local chieftain – originally a clan leader, later a royal representative tasked with collecting taxes and leading men in battle. Erling Skjalgsson, born around 960, was one of the most powerful hersirs of his time. He ruled much of western Norway from Jæren and maintained strong ties to both the king and the local farmers – until he fell in battle against King Olaf Haraldsson in the Boknafjord in 1028, just off the coast of what is now Randaberg.This cider is a tribute to those leaders – bold, grounded, and rooted in tradition.Crafted from Rubinola, Ellis Bitter, and a touch of mild eating apples – varieties still uncommon in Norwegian cider, though widely used in other cider-producing countries.Slow-fermented and aged for 9 months after filtration.Grown, pressed, fermented, filtered, and bottled at Sandalen Gård in Randaberg, Norway.
