Great yeast for apple ferments (cider or mead)
Cotes des Blancs is my go-to yeast for ciders and meads below 12% ABV. The lag can be up to 48h from dry yeast but the ferment is moderate with low foaming and nice flocculation in a compact yeast cake. It's not the fastest but it will retain great apple aroma and flavor and ends slightly sweet, which I like.

Beast of a yeast
This is my go to yeast for my cider making, I've used it exclusively for a few years now. It seems to produce the best taste and I've never had any issues with the yeast not working. I keep it in my refrigerator when storing it. I've literally pulled packets out from last years shipment and they work. Be sure to get the yeast started in 1/4 cup warm water before pitching it in your cider. I also use yeast nutrients to make sure it stays happy. I've brewed over 200 gallons so far with this yeast and it's always consistent on how it works and tastes. This includes store bought fresh pressed cider or my own pressed cider from fresh apples. Highly recommend if you're serious about cider making.

Like Biting Into A Fresh Apple
Fantastic results with commercial apple juice, really brings out fresh fruit flavors in a cider. I used Aldi apple juice, it fermented out about 98% dry.

Great Results
I made mead with this. The result was the perfect level of sweetness and carmelly flavor for me - roughly at the level of a port. I'm not sure how well it makes dryer batches as I'm fairly new to this, but I'm very pleased with the results I got.
