Prunus serotina, more commonly known as the black cherry, brings the sweetness and tang most cherries are known for, but is also revered for its sharpness. That honed and striking natural quality of the stone fruit makes it a kindred partner with the oft-times equally tart apple, balanced in Red Branch Cider‘s Black Cherry with the weight and texture of honey. As with the rest of the cidery’s line, this is a cyser, a potent potable of apple and honey cider with the addition of black cherry juice, standing at 6.9 percent ABV. Red Branch’s most popular offering, the Black Cherry delivers a mouthful of accented and pronounced cherry fruit, with apple gushing through the palate and a lick of honey in the finish.
