The World's First Ice Cider
Made from apples naturally frozen by the extreme cold of the Quebec winter, Neige Première is a unique dessert cider. The fruits, hand-picked between -8°C and -15°C, are pressed while still frozen, releasing a concentrated juice rich in sugar and flavors. The slow fermentation allows the development of deep flavors of caramelized apple, honey, and spices, resulting in a cider of exceptional intensity and complexity.

A Bit of History
At the beginning of the 2000s, NEIGE launched its first commercial product in the form of ice cider, NEIGE Première, marking the start of its journey. Since then, NEIGE has become one of the most recognized cider brands in Quebec, with an international presence in several markets.
Innovation is at the heart of the company's activities, which constantly seeks to rethink cider to make it modern, accessible, and refreshing, in line with the spirit of its brand. NEIGE is a company that adopts a fresh and different perspective on cider.
Neige has chosen Julie-Anne Ho as its ambassador. She is a woman entrepreneur, a fashion icon, and an accomplished public figure. With pride, elegance, and a strong personality, she has become the face of NEIGE.
Founded on the evocative concept "Crafted with nature, inspired by the cold," NEIGE draws its essence directly from the source. The company is convinced that the key to creating the best products lies in the judicious use of nature's riches. By harnessing the power of the cold climate of Canadian territories, NEIGE transforms apples into superior quality ciders, which serve as the basis for its exceptional products.
Recognized Products
Le GIN DE NEIGE is a gin made in small quantities, double gold medalist at the IWSC of San Francisco in 2019. Its unique flavor is obtained by the infusion and distillation of spices and wild herbs from Quebec, including juniper berries, sweet clover flowers, white spruce shoots, and lichen. The result is a fragrant and balanced blend. By adding NEIGE ice cider, the gin acquires a refined and silky texture, perfect to be enjoyed alone on ice or in a cocktail.
Le Cidre de glace NEIGE is an internationally renowned beverage, a true favorite that celebrates life's special moments. Its taste is intense and remarkably balanced, with a perfect mix between sugar and acidity. Thanks to an exceptional aromatic persistence, this little treat can be enjoyed as an aperitif or digestif.
