DiscontinuedWhile I'm known for my non-traditional ciders such as Sacrilege Sour Cherry, Fresh Hop Hallelujah Hopricot and ¡Tepache!, I do make a stunning, award-winning single-variety cider using only Washington and Oregon-grown Newtown Pippin apples. This apple is the granddaddy of heirlooms, beloved by Thomas Jefferson who, speaking from France, said “they have no apples here to compare to our Newtown Pippin.” Laying bare the naked soul of the apple is the mission of the Revelation lineup. Each variety is naturally fermented to utter dryness and then receives a touch of apple juice. I have prohibited any alteration and expelled any further additions so you are tasting only the apple. The consummation is pure and expressly for your pleasure. I call this cider Revelation Newtown Pippin, and is the one year-round in my Revelation lineup. I carefully selected a white wine yeast to let the particulars of the Newtown Pippin apple shine through. No other apples were used, making this a single varietal. It doesn't end there since we let this cider age for at least four months to develop flavors not found in immature offerings.

Mild cheddar & Cotswold, Spanish 4 mo. Manchego raw sheep cheese, potted meats: terrine, mousse.
