Saison Pomme Pet Nat Cider, Find and Foster Fine Ciders
Description
A robust but quaffable, complex yet refreshing cider bottled Pet Nat Style!
The name refers to the seasonal farmhouse ale brewed by farmers to quench the thirst of their seasonal workers during harvest, & this bottle is very much the cider equivalent!
Dry & spicy with soft, balanced tannin & acidity. It exhibits typical West Country cider phenolics; a subtly funky yeasty character & a sweet, refreshing fruitiness. The long, slow, wild fermentation brought out a smooth, rustic element. Fermented with wild yeasts & unfiltered. Triple Vintage.

Producer Details
Find and Foster aim is to reveal the quality potential of the traditional orchards that they foster in Devon; they cultivate, nurture and encourage them to thrive while creating natural, world class Champagne method, keeved and pet nat ciders.
Find and Foster work with farmers to help breathe life back into traditional orchards on their farms; to prevent further decline and the extinction of important local apple varieties and work towards creating balanced, biodiverse ecosystems, that thrive with wildlife and require minimal human intervention.
Unlike commercial orchards, these orchards are rich in nationally rare species and an important home for diverse pollinators, birds & other wildlife. Many also act as a gene bank where trees have survived for a century or more unaided by chemicals such as fungicides. Their disease-resistant genes are an important resource that needs safeguarding for the future. Find and Foster manage the orchards to increase biodiversity (or maintain it where they’re already diverse), & improve overall health & vitality.
