Growers Juicy Bartlett Pear Cider
Bartlett pear, not another apple can. Growers files this one with the core line and calls the aroma succulent orchard fruit.
A Mississauga company, Arterra Wines Canada, holds the trademark. An Ontario teachers' pension fund took that firm from Constellation in 2016. The homepage talks about apples grown nearby. Pear is still in the same range, and no tank town is printed.
The east page sends this can to the LCBO and some Ontario grocers. First cider from this house was 1962. The company itself started in 1922.
