In a true circle of life fashion, Tieton Cider Works smokes this cider over the apple wood the juice rooted from. In a process the Tietion, Washington-based team created specially for the sipper that “introduces smoke directly into the cider,” the apple wood releases sweet, full and woody smoke aromas that complement those of the related apple and the added infusion of pure pumpkin brings an element of earthiness unlike many tipples on the market. The fruit (and it’s smoking tree wood) hail from the estate Harmony Orchards, using organically grown dessert varieties that balance tart and sumptuous with the smoke. Flavors of juicy apple and textures of dazzling acid push the squash and smoke aromas to the side, and the cider finishes round, off-dry and clean. Plant this bottle on the drinks table this Thanksgiving for a complementary pairing and bonus points for your craft drink creds.
