Cosmic Crisp apple is the work of 20 years of study and research by Washington State University, resulting in a classically bred hybrid of Enterprise and Honeycrisp apples that’s large, round, crisp, and super juicy apple. “When fermented, the aromatics that are released from the Cosmic Crisp apples are truly unique,” said Dave Takush, 2 Towns Ciderhouse head cidermaker in a press release. “Strong notes of white currant and pineapple blossom off a platinum-colored cider that is as crisp and sparkling as you could imagine. People can make all the interstellar puns they want, but this is truly a unique and beautiful cider.” 2 Towns was the first cidery to produce a cider crafted from this exceptional new apple. “We are proud to have been selected to partner with the Cosmic Crisp® team and launch this apple out into the world,” said Nels Jewell-Larsen, 2 Towns’ director of Business Development in the same release. “This is a very special apple, and it has been a pleasure to work with a group that is as passionate about apples as we are.” Since we suggest a cider flight every Monday, today we choose a to-go flight of 2 Towns’ Cosmic Crisp variants in a flight we call, Peaks and Pints Monday Cider Flight: 2 Towns Cosmic Crisp.
