Graft Cider's Field Day combines the vibrancy of orchard fruit with unexpected botanical complexity in a way that challenges conventional cider perceptions. This New York-based cidery crafts Field Day from heritage apples and rhubarb, creating a cider that pours a striking peachy pink in the glass. The nose reveals delicate floral notes and subtle dried fruit characters—think candied rose petals meeting dried apricots. On the palate, the rhubarb provides tart structure while natural sweetness balances the acidity perfectly. This is sessionable and refreshing craft cider that encourages exploration of how fruit and fermentation can create something greater than the sum of its parts. The fruit profile develops with warmth, revealing additional nuance. Serve well-chilled as an aperitif or alongside lighter fare where its acidity and delicate fruit characteristics shine. The cider works beautifully with soft cheeses, summer fruit salads, and grilled preparations. For those discovering craft cider's sophistication, Field Day demonstrates what thoughtful production and quality fruit selection can achieve without excessive residual sugar or cloying character.
