CLACKAMAS, Ore. – Oct. 23, 2018 – Fall is in full swing, with crisp mornings, crunchy fallen leaves, and bushels of freshly picked apples. Portland Cider Co. is celebrating the season with the release of its popular Cranberry Cider, which will be available on Thursday, Nov. 1.
The deliciously rich, cranberry-forward cider is a blend of fresh Northwest-grown cranberries and apples. Slightly tart and semi-sweet, with a rich apple flavor at its core, it is reminiscent of fresh cranberry relish. The cider is 6% abv.
“This year we blended in fresh cranberry juice after fermentation to create a more rich and festive cider,” explained Deron Davenport, Cidermaker for Portland Cider Co. “It’s a beautiful ruby red and it’s bursting with cranberry flavor, perfect for the holidays.”
With tart notes of zest, ripe cranberry and rich apple, this full-bodied Cranberry Cider is the ideal complement to the Thanksgiving meal. It pairs especially well with turkey, which is why, to celebrate its release, Portland Cider Co. has partnered with Portland Creamery on an epic Turkey Sandwich Special, featuring the latter’s classic Oregon Chèvre and a cranberry compote using Portland Cider’s cranberry cider and fresh cranberries. The limited special will be available at the cidery’s two Portland-area locations while supplies last.
