Bromlebasse Rosésider

Bromlebasse is a unique cider made with a blend of wild blackberries and apples from Sandalen Gård. The wild blackberries, harvested from the farm's untamed lands, play a central role in the cider’s fermentation, imparting a rich, distinctive character. Fermentation starts with blackberry juice and post-press macerated skins, a technique called maceration, which deepens the berry flavor and complexity. The cider undergoes filtration to halt fermentation, and pH, SO₂, and sugar levels (including fructose, glucose, and sucrose) are meticulously monitored. After fermentation, the cider is stored, tested for quality, and before bottling, final measurements are taken before carbonation and stabilization. This relatively dry cider, with 8 grams of residual sugar (7g fructose, 1g glucose), offers subtle sweetness that complements the bold blackberry and apple notes. A notable feature is the high pectin content of the berries, which can cause a slight haze in the bottle, enhancing the flavor profile and creating a fuller taste. The label features a charming drawing by the cider maker’s 14-year-old daughter, adding a personal touch. Bromlebasse was awarded the Gold Medal Certificate at the 2024 Cider World Competition for its outstanding quality.
