Pommeau Box (4 or 6 bottle bundle)

Pommeau Box (4 or 6 bottle bundle)

The perfect bundle of dessert and aperitif ciders for holiday gatherings or cozy nights in sipping by the fire. Makes for a great gift for pommeau and sweet cider fans. This bundle includes pommeau from France, where pommeau originates, and from various corners of the U.S.

4-Bottle Bundle Includes:

  • Le Père Jules (France)- Pommeau de Normandie (750 mL) - A delicious aperitif wine made by mixing 2/3 fresh apple cider and 1/3 one-year-old Calvados (apple brandy, in this case made from a blend of Normandie AOC Calvados) then aging for several years in oak barrels. 
  • Eve's Cidery (NY), Pommeau (375 mL) -   This 2023 bottling of pommeau was aged in barrels for 2 years before blending and bottling. An indispensable sipper for cozy fall nights or for sharing around a summer campfire. 
  • Raging Cider & Mead (CA), West Coast Pommeau 2021 (375 mL) - Made using fresh juice from the same blend of apple varieties: Hyslop crabapple & old cultivar honeyed Golden Delicious. Each year the apples express themselves differently. Raging uses a solera method for the apple brandy used in their pommeau, constantly adding a fresh vintage of brandy to the prior year's blend. This 2021 vintage uses brandy between 1 & 4 years old. Barrel aged for at least two years prior to bottling.
  • Shawnee Hill Farm (WA)- Pommeau (375 mL) - Made from estate grown apples on Shawnee Hill's orchard on Vashon Island. Apple juice was distilled and blended with fresh apple juice all on Shawnee Hill Farm. A smooth and apple-forward sipper. 

6-Bottle Bundle Includes all the Above, Plus:

  • Ferme de Port Coustic (France) - Coup d'Jus Pommeau de Bretagne (500 mL) - Coup d'Jus is a Pommeau de Bretagne (Brittany/Breton), made to the AOC standards of Brittany. Made by blending Lambig (apple brandy made in Brittany) with fresh apple juice, and barrel aging it in oak barrels for 30+ months.
  • Alpenfire Cider (WA) - Rosy Pommeau (375 mL) -  Made from the red, high acid juice of Airlie Redflesh apples, which were partially fermented before halting the fermentation with the addition of an eau de vie. The eau de vie is distilled from Alpenfire's estate organic cider varietals and locally grown organic heirloom apples. Once blended, it is aged in neutral oak for 15+ months before bottling. 

 

About Pommeau:

Pommeau is a traditional French apple mistelle, made by blending unfermented apple cider with apple brandy. The mixture is aged in oak barrels, typically for at least 1-3 years and often longer. The high percentage of alcohol from the apple brandy prevents the fresh juice from fermenting. The prolonged aging results in a rich melding of flavors from the juice, brandy, and barrel that is intense yet smooth and delicious.

Pommeau is best served as an aperitif or with dessert. We suggest serving each of these lightly chilled in small glasses, 1-2 ounces per serving. It pairs wonderfully with cheese, chocolate, apple pie, or sipped slowly on its own.

We ship cider in boxes that safely hold 4-bottles, 6-bottles, or 12-bottles. Order in one of those quantities (or multiples of those quantities) to maximize your shipping value. For example, if you order 2-3 ciders, there will be room left in the box and it won't meaningfully change the shipping costs to fill the box.

We do have 1-bottle boxes, but in most all instances it will cost the same to ship you a full 4-bottle box.

Shipping to a business address will usually save you a few bucks!

Shipping cost estimates:

  • Pacific Northwest/West Coast: Shipping anywhere in the Pacific Northwest or West Coast is relatively inexpensive. Almost all box sizes cost $16-21 to ship. Same is true for most destinations in the Mountain Time Zone.
  • Central Standard Time Zone / Midwest: A 4-bottle or 6-bottle box will usually cost $18-24 to ship. A 12-bottle box will usually cost $22-30 to ship. Variance depends on weight and how far from a FedEx/UPS shipping center your delivery address is.
  • East Coast: A 4-bottle or 6-bottle box will usually cost $20-25 to ship. A 12-bottle box will usually cost $25-35 to ship. Variance depends on weight and how far from a FedEx/UPS shipping center your delivery address is.

Important Shipping Information:

  • We are able to ship cider to most, but not all, states.
  • Legally, someone 21+ must be present at the time of delivery to sign for the cider. We cannot ship to PO Boxes or AFO/FPO addresses.
  • Shipping prices vary by weight and destination. How far you are from Seattle (where we ship from), and remote vs. central your shipping destination is, and how heavy your box is will make shipping vary.
  • The bigger the box, the less you pay in shipping on a per-bottle basis. We ship in 1, 4, 6, and 12 bottle boxes - order in those quantities for the best shipping value. The size of the box matters as much as the weight, so don't leave empty slots in your bottle box! Shipping a 1-2 bottles will cost the same as shipping 4-6 bottles in most cases. Shipping a 12-bottle box is usually only $3-5 more than shipping a 4-6 bottle box.
