This alcoholic drink stands out for its balance and lightness. It is an ice cider obtained thanks to the action of the rigorous cold of Canada. It has an alcohol content of 10.5% and it is offered by the manufacturer in a 375 ml bottle. Its amber color reveals touches of fruit - pears and quinces - on the palate. Macle's Ice Cider has received numerous accolades.
It is considered one of the best ice ciders in Quebec. To testify to this, we can cite, for example, the gold medals obtained at the Nations Cup in 2013, 2015 and 2016.

The apple juice used to make Macle Ice Cider is obtained by pressing naturally frozen apples from the tree. For the best tasting conditions, we think of serving it very chilled (5°C) it is perfect as an aperitif, with oven-baked foie gras or even at dessert time or at the same time as a cheese platter with a strong character. It will bring a lot of sweetness when tasting these. It can also serve as a beautiful conclusion to a memorable meal, which will end wonderfully well.
Today one of the largest beekeeping operations in Quebec, it was founded in 1976 by the Macles, a couple from Picardy. It is made up of a honey farm, a maple grove and an orchard of several hundred apple trees. Its honey house is equipped with a mead house and a distillery. It is ideally located in Mirabel, on the side of Mont Saint-Benoit, which provides it with excellent conditions for the production of quality ice cider. It is a family business. Moreover, the operation was taken over by their daughter Eléanore and her husband Cyril in 2006.
