Founded in 1994 La Face Cachée de la Pomme, situated in Hemmingford , in Montérégie (South of Montreal), is an enterprise that specializes in the production of apple ice wine and exports its high-quality products to 13 countries across the globe

Driven by a passionate desire to create an authentic product of its time inspired by the bracing chill of the Québec winter, François Pouliot, a well-know film producer, participated in the development of the first ice cider in 1994. A few vintage later, visual artist Stéphanie Beaudoin joined François, lending her vision, energy and unflagging attention to detail to the refinement of La Face Cachée de la Pomme's ice cider. Since then, this entrepreneurial couple's constant innovations have sparked a trend that has played a major part in making Québec renowned worldwide for its grand dessert wine.
