Get it for Mavi
As commonly found, this yeast produces a great scent and flavor when cultivated. I'm using it to make mavi and it's been working beautifully to help recreate what you can get from Puerto Rico from scent alone. This is a killer strain which took a while to learn so if you want to mix strains - don't. Make separate batches with different strains if you want to do any mixing (stabilize prior to actually combining).

Good value, never fails.
This is a plum wine made with this yeast. It has been a workhorse, and has never let us down. Even under terrible, hot Florida summers, our wines turn out well. It's a clean fermenter, fast,and doesn't require any "babying". I just bought 10 more packs for a 150lb batch of peach wine!

Have used this yeast for a variety of fast and cheap wine batches, under a wide range of temperatures; it doesn't stall out. Good for shocking a stuck batch as well, along with grape skin mush. Gives a bit more character than the other high ABV standard, EC-1118. Not the greatest for cider but the brew was dry and I was too lazy to hunt down a proper cider yeast.
