Party Duck Dry Hopped Apple Cider (330 ml)

品飲筆記：先是清新的柑橘與熱帶果香跳出，接著帶出梨與淡雅果味，乾啤花處理賦予花香與微苦的草本調性，整體口感酸爽帶氣泡，略帶輕甜，收尾乾淨帶有啤香餘韻。
酒莊小檔案：Party Duck 以手工小批量的現代風格西打聞名，擅長利用乾啤花技術增添香氣，並於 2023 亞洲西打大賽贏得金牌，風格注重清新與飲用友善。
釀造工藝：採不鏽鋼發酵以保留鮮明果香，發酵後進行乾啤花處理，增添香氣層次但不刻意加重苦感；輕微加壓裝瓶以保留恰到好處的氣泡感。
果園小記：果實來自氣候溫和的果園，栽培重視平衡酸度與香氣，採摘與處理以溫柔手法保護果實新鮮度。
飲用建議：冰鎮後直接飲用即可，適合搭配海鮮、燒烤或帶香料的亞洲小吃，口感清爽開胃。

Tasting Note: Bright citrus and tropical top notes lift from the glass, followed by crisp orchard fruit and a hint of pear. The dry‑hopped character brings fresh hop aromatics — floral, resinous and slightly herbal — that mingle with a vinous, lightly sweet core. On the palate it's zesty and effervescent, with brisk acidity, moderate body and a clean, slightly hop‑tinged finish.
Producer Notes: From Party Duck’s small‑batch cider line, this release won Gold at the Asia Cider Championship 2023. The producer focuses on contemporary, craft approaches to traditional cider, emphasizing aroma through dry hopping and careful fermentation.
Winemaking Notes: Fermented on modern stainless steel to preserve bright fruit expression, then dry‑hopped post‑fermentation to layer aromatic complexity without adding bitterness. Light carbonation highlights the cider’s freshness; bottling aims to retain lively bubbles and clarity.
Orchard/Vineyard Notes: Fruit is sourced from temperate orchards selected for balanced acidity and aromatic lift. Sustainable orchard practices and gentle fruit handling are prioritized to keep flavors pure and vibrant.
Serving: Serve well chilled. No decanting needed. Excellent as a refreshing aperitif or paired with grilled and spiced dishes.
