About the room

A Vienna room for natural pomme fruit

ForeMost Cider Room opened in Vienna as a place to taste and talk about cider made the old way. We began with a simple question: what do orchard fruit and a patient cellar taste like when little is done to them?

The room is small and unhurried, with tastings, conversation, and a shelf of bottles from our own selection.

How it is made

Fruit, fermentation, and restraint

Pomme fruit

Many kinds of fruit

We work with different kinds of pomme fruit, each pressed as it comes in. The character of every cider follows the fruit rather than a fixed recipe.

Wild fermentation

Fermentation left to its own pace

Most of our ciders are wild-fermented, so the yeasts already living on the fruit and in the cellar do the work. We watch the process closely rather than steering it.

Minimal intervention

Mostly unfiltered, minimal sulfites

Most of our ciders are unfiltered, with minimal or no sulfites added. We do not promise zero sulfites, but we keep additions to what each batch truly needs.

Come by for a tasting, or browse the bottles in the shop.

Our tastings are open to visitors in Vienna, and the full selection is available online.
