HOZQ8-167 Dry Wine Yeast/Cotes de Blanc (Pack of 5)

I mean, wow. The quality of this stuff is beyond recognizable. Me and my friends make wine and sell it at local art shows. We use this with apple cider and other simple ingredients. May I just say again, wow. The concentrated yeast is so much stronger than regular wine, not in the sense of taste but, well, how do you put this respectfully and intelligently; drunkfulness? You get the point. The yeast does not interact with the flavor. Unlike grocery store wine, which has the taint tartness to it, our wine was sweet and comparable to nectar. Seriously, I can't say it enough, this was like butterscotch candy. For the price, you get a great amount of yeast that can more way more than numerous batches of gallon sizes. In full, buy this product. Worth it.

Product is exactly as advertised. Arrived quickly and undamaged. First brewing went well. It does finish very dry, but I imagine if you are thinking of buying I this strain that is probably what you’re looking for.

I bought this for the use of making hard apple cider. When I received it all of the yeast packets were marked to expire about 2 1/2 months later, which is more than enough for me. I used one packet to make a yeast starter and added it to my cider. It has been very active and I am looking forward to having some 6.5% ABV cider!

Recommended for fermenting cider without leaving yeasty taste.

Tried this for a mead and it came out with a terrible flavor. Don’t use this yeast unless you plan on back sweetening whatever you are brewing

not much that can be said, it should do what its supposed to. i would have given them a 5 star if the expiration date would not have been so close, not sure if i will use them before the date. i know these companies hate to lose money but they need to learn to refresh their supply.

This yeast is multi purpose for wine... Champagne or honey mead. Beautiful results!

I've used 3 packs of this so far and nothing. I'm not sure how Amazon stores their yeast but so far none of this has been viable.
