7 Our know-how Orchard: - Owner grower hectares of orchards. - Control of yields from year to year. - Fruit quality control. From apple to the juice: HACCP - The apples are hand picked in order to prevent any damage and select the best fruits (3 time in order to have fruit at the same maturity). - We always keep the collected apples in special wooden cases for about 3 weeks in order to enable the fruit to slightly dehydrate and therefore concentrate its aromas. - Sort of apples. - Washing. - Milling. - Maceration of the pulp (limits the astringent side of the product). - Pressing (yield: about 600 l / tonne of apples). Natural fermentation: - Apple pure juice vatting. - Filling to eliminate residues. - The apple juice is then stored in a thermo regulated fermentation tank (<8 C). - Long fermentation (3 to 4 months). - The foam process is totally natural. It is carried out in closed environment to enable the fermentation generated carbonic gas to dissolve in the cider. - Filtration (removal of fermentation agents) - No pasteurization. - Bottling. From apple to the juice: at least 6 months
