Black Diamond Cider Description
Black Diamond's Slatestone Cider is a captivating and exquisite terroir blend crafted from an exceptional selection of heirloom and bittersweet apples, sourced exclusively from the esteemed Finger Lakes region. Our family-owned orchard, nestled on the western slope of Lake Cayuga, boasts a diverse collection of over 100 heirloom apple varieties, each contributing to the complexity, depth, and character of our ciders.
Inspired by a year-long European expedition to visit orchards and cider makers, our passionate pursuit of knowledge has allowed us to reintroduce treasured Northeast and European apple varieties to the region, earning us a distinguished reputation among local farmers. Our Slatestone Cider features a stellar lineup of apple varieties, including King David, Golden Russet, Goldrush, Chisel Jersey, Ellis Bitter, Brown Snout, and Suncrisp.
Fermented slowly and at cool temperatures to preserve the essence of each apple variety, Slatestone Cider is a harmonious blend that delivers a crisp and bone-dry profile. Robust tannins and flinty mineral notes are perfectly balanced, while enticing aromas of lime, green apple, and grapefruit add a refreshing zing to the sensory experience.
With an alcohol content of 7.6%, residual sugar of 0%, and total tannins at 687 ppm, Black Diamond Cider's Slatestone Cider is a sophisticated and invigorating delight, perfect for the discerning palate. Allow yourself to be enchanted by the rich history and craftsmanship of our family-owned orchard, and indulge in the unparalleled taste of Slatestone Cider.
