About This Cider
Mac Ivors Plum & Ginger Irish Cider is a modern craft cider that combines the freshness of Irish apple cider with the bold flavours of plum and ginger. Produced in Ireland using 100% Irish apples, this 4% cider offers a unique and refreshing drinking experience that stands out within craft cider Ireland. It is designed to be vibrant, approachable, and full of flavour, making it an excellent choice for those looking to try something different.
The flavour profile begins with a crisp apple base, providing a clean and refreshing foundation. The plum adds a rich, slightly sweet fruit note that brings depth, while the ginger introduces a subtle warmth and spice that balances the sweetness. This combination creates a cider that is both fruity and refreshing, with enough complexity to keep it interesting without becoming overwhelming.
Unlike traditional apple ciders, this fruit cider leans into its flavour additions, offering a more expressive and modern style. It remains highly drinkable, with a smooth finish and balanced profile that suits a wide range of occasions.
