CIDER PHANTASIES

The multi-award winning folk at Peckham’s cider have really gone spiritual on it and created ‘Phantasmic 2018’ a truly wild cider available in 750ml ($19.99) where Kingston Black, Knotted Kernel, Browns, Harry Master’s Jersey and Chisel Jersey Cider apples are fermented on their skins with Torulaspora Delbrueckii and Prise de Mousse yeasts, then matured in freshly-emptied Pommeau barrels for 10 months. The result is a dry, complex, farmhouse cider, with bitter tannins against a funky background of apple brandy, apple peel, spice and oak.
