- / per
The Manoir du Kinkiz Cidre AOP Cornouaille is an exceptional, premium dry French apple cider born from the perfect harmony of maritime soil, ancestral orchards, and the unique climate of the rugged Breton Coast. Crafted in Brittany's historic Quimper region by legendary cider master Hervé Seznec, this artisanal expression is the pride of the estate, carrying the strictly regulated, prestigious Cornouaille Appellation d'Origine Protégée (AOP)—the first cider region in Brittany to achieve this recognition. The liquid is entirely derived from 100 percent pure fermented apple juice, highlighting a meticulous selection of indigenous bittersweet varieties. Bottled at a refreshing 5.5 percent alcohol by volume following a slow, natural wild-yeast fermentation, this elegant cider delivers a wonderfully structured complexity, making it a spectacular addition to boutique e-commerce collections and discerning cellars.

Moir du Kinkiz, established in Quimper, Brittany, is a highly revered name in the landscape of fine French pomology, synonymous with ultimate respect for organic orchard biodiversity and ancestral Breton traditions. For decades, the estate has rejected high-yield shortcuts, choosing instead to plant over 30 hectares of carefully selected heritage apple varieties on South-Finistère hillsides, where grazing sheep act as natural lawnmowers and orchard caretakers. The house distinguishes itself through its absolute dedication to natural transformation, relying on slow cellaring and a strict pure-juice philosophy to capture the vibrant spirit of the Atlantic coast. Widely celebrated as a benchmark for Breton excellence, the artisanal creations of Manoir du Kinkiz are fiercely pursued by international sommeliers and premium boutique bottle shops worldwide.
Gourmet beverage enthusiasts and fine dining connoisseurs choose Manoir du Kinkiz AOP Cornouaille because it delivers an uncompromising level of authentic, old-world Breton craftsmanship that mass-produced industrial brands cannot duplicate. Following ancient, non-hurried natural production methods, the estate avoids pasteurisation, forced carbonation, or water dilution, ensuring that every drop preserves the rustic terroir of the Atlantic shoreline. This premium cider beautifully bridges the gap between casual refreshment and sophisticated gastronomic pairing, displaying a generous, fine mousse and an exceptional bittersweet structural balance. Its striking authenticity and refined culinary versatility make it an incredible retail asset or a highly thoughtful gift for dedicated cider historians.
