Specialty Cider and Perry · BJCP 2015 Cider
The term for this category is traditional but possibly misleading: it is simply a cider with substantial added sugar to achieve higher alcohol than a standard cider. As such it comes closer to a white wine than any other style. No fruit other than apples may be used in this style. Typically like a dry white wine, balanced, and with low astringency and bitterness.
