Sassy Cider Poire 330ml
£3.00
Tasting Notes
Sassy by name and sassy by nature; this handcrafted pear cider certainly lives up to its moniker. It has been lovingly created by a pair of young Frenchmen – childhood friends Xavier d’Audiffret Pasquier and Pierre-Emmanuel Racine-Jourden – who were keen to revolutionise what is not only their favourite beverage, but also Normandy’s most famous export. Employing the expertise of a cellar master with more than 30 years’ experience, they have succeeded in giving ‘cidre’ a very modern twist.
Gluten-free, 100% natural and made from handpicked pears that were organically grown in Château de Sassy’s orchards, this is one of the lowest calorie alcoholic drinks on the market. The recipe is a heavily-guarded secret that combines more than ten different varieties of pear, some from over 100-year-old trees. The result is a clean, sophisticated, sorbet-esque style that is far removed from those funky farmyard flavours so often associated with Normandy cider. Expect crisp pear, Champagne notes, honeyed herbs and a refreshing tang. This versatile off-dry tipple would be perfect served with sunshine, fruity salads, tarte aux poires, chocolate desserts, cheese or as a replacement for the tonic in your G&T.
Sassy has now become the go-to choice for the world’s culinary elite – Joel Robuchon, Alain Ducasse, Alexandre Gauthier, Anne-Sophie Pic, David Toutain, Gregory Marchand, the lists goes on – as well as top mixologists and bartenders from Paris to Hong Kong. After finding its way on to the lists of London’s Sexy Fish, Bob Bob Ricard, Nola and Pollen Street Social’s sister restaurant, surely SASSY has earned a space in your refrigerator?
