Graft Cider Book of Nomad

• Overall Description
  • A flagship series from Graft Cider featuring experimental craft ciders made with New York apples and globally inspired ingredients.
  • Each “Book of Nomad” release is typically a unique, rotating recipe rather than a single fixed flavor, often part of a story-driven collection.
  • Commonly features bold combinations such as fruits, botanicals, herbs, teas, spices, and sometimes cocktail-inspired elements.
  • Produced in the Hudson Valley by Graft Cider, known for pushing boundaries with sour and modern artisanal cider styles.
  • Usually around 6.9% ABV with a dry to semi-dry profile depending on the specific variant.
• Taste & Texture
  • Highly variable depending on the release, ranging from fruity and tropical to herbal, spiced, or wine-like.
  • Common flavor themes include tart apple base, layered acidity, and creative adjuncts like berries, citrus, herbs, or barrel influence.
  • Generally dry or semi-dry with bright acidity and complex aromatics.
  • Light to medium body with crisp carbonation and a refreshing but often funky or experimental finish.
