Trying Ice Cider [Alcoholic Beverage] (for me, the non-drinker)

Trying "Ice Cider" which are related to "Hard Cider" but completely different by the fact that Ice Cider are consider as a type of "Fruit Wine" and if you found them in store they usually are sold in the Wine section unlike the Hard Cider which are sold in the Beer section. Since this is related to Hard Cider, I said to myself why not try it and see the difference.

Here are some useful link about Ice Cider:

go to cydermarket website and look under "Canada" from the imported section (I don't want hyperlink this because they change the website link and they may change it again so google it)

I like to noted that I did a little search around on the internet on how many companies make Ice Cider and the result are not many. They more rarer then companies that make Ice Wine.
