Sparkling beverage aficionados know that “brut nature” is the classification used in champagne to indicate that a bottle is bone dry, bottled without residual sugar or dosage. Made from at least 14 heirloom and tannic apple varieties, Eden’s Brut Nature is bottle fermented and aged on the lees for at least 18 months. It is elegantly balanced with deep apple character, smooth tannins and well-integrated acidity.

Eleanor Leger founded Eden Specialty Ciders in 2007 after tasting ice cider in Montreal. Canada has always been a leader in ice wine, and a sweet cider industry, utilizing the same methods, sprung up alongside the vinous version. Leger’s great-great grandfather was a blacksmith in the Northeast Kingdom before the Civil War, and her deep roots there caused her to immediately recognize the similarities between the climate in Quebec and that of the Northeast Kingdom in Vermont. Eleanor bought an abandoned dairy farm and became the first producer of ice cider in the United States. Born out of this passion project, Eden is now an industry leader in quality cider production.
