Brilliant neon pink coral color. Aromas and flavors of red and black cherry, white cherry Airheads, and toasted pie crust with a velvety, crisp, effervescent, off-dry light-to-medium body and a medium-length finish displaying accents of white cherry candy, sweet alpine herbs, almond paste, and strawberry vanilla frosting. Sweet ripe fruit that has a fresh acidity leaving the cider to feel less sweet.
