Perfect Pairings & Recipes for
Cider
Top flavour pairings and cider recipes, revealed through the hidden methmatics of flavour.
Cider immediately conjures the evocative embrace of sour apple and the bracing kiss of honey, but beneath its sour surface lies a nuanced symphony of subtle flavour notes: persimmon, pear, and even hints of vinegar. These are the notes that lend it such remarkable, resonant depth. The key to finding the perfect pairing for cider is understanding how these notes harmonise.

How Flavonomics Works
We've pioneered a unique, data-driven approach to decode the intricate art of flavour pairing. Our goal is to move beyond intuition and uncover the science of why certain ingredients harmonise beautifully. This rigorous methodology allows us to provide you with insightful and reliable pairing recommendations.
Our analysis begins with over 50,000 carefully selected recipes from acclaimed chefs like Galton Blackiston, Marcello Tully, and Pierre Lambinon. This premium dataset ensures our model distils genuine culinary excellence and creativity.
Each ingredient from these recipes is deconstructed across 150 distinct flavour dimensions, creating a unique numerical "flavour fingerprint." This quantification allows us to apply advanced analytical methods to identify complex patterns between flavour notes.
We identify popular ingredient combinations that frequently appear in our recipe database. Regression analysis is then performed on these pairings to statistically validate and pinpoint truly harmonious flavours.
These insights drive our predictive model, which allows us to take any ingredient (e.g., Cider), analyse its detailed flavour profile, and accurately reveal its complementary flavours and perfect ingredient partners.
