La Face Cachée de la Pomme (translation: "the secret side of the apple") is a Quebec cidery founded in 1998 by François Pouliot, a young film producer whose dream was to create an apple ice wine. Winning 135 awards by 2015 for their flagship Neige Ice Cider, they released Gin de Neige, which is distilled from 100% Canadian grains. The spirit is then infused and distilled with juniper berries, melilot, white spruce, and lichen. It's cut with apple water recovered from the production of ice cider and finally, a touch of the Neige Ice Cider itself is added to the gin.

Distillé en petits lots à partir de grains canadiens et d’eau de pomme issue du cidre de glace. Soyeux à souhait, ce gin innovateur révèle un goût raffiné avec sa sélection d’aromates et d’herbes sauvages du Québec tels que baies du genévrier, mélilot, épinette blanche et lichen. Seul ou en cocktail, il promet une expérience gustative hors de l’ordinaire.
It’s rather harsh. No flavour from ice wine. Maybe it’s because it was strate at a tasting but it was nauseating
Same style and price bracket, best rated first.
