The story behind apple mistelles...
The story behind apple mistelles is one made out of traditions : in the old age, at harvest season, cider apple juices are mixed with brandy to preserve their flavors throughout the year and stop thier fermentation. The principal of mistelle was born. This invloves the "mutage" - mixing - of apple must - cider apple juice - with cider brandy.
