Quebec Crackling Cider

Cidrerie St-Nicolas Pom'Or Tradition Crackling Cider, Quebec

So interesting for me to try something totally new and different. I don't drink much cider, I don't know much about cider. When we were still in school, my friend used to buy cans of Strongbow - I remember it as being little more than fizzy and fruity. This should be a proper one. From La belle province, bottled with an exposed mushroom cork. Very pale colour, with a waxy, apple-y nose. Some pear too, soft and slightly muted. Some sweetness on the palate, a refreshing though simply style. Very interesting indeed. And now I know a little bit more about cider.
