I have been using the Wyeast Sweet Mead yeast the couple of year's. I haven't been into a homeBrew store in almost a year. I do have a couple Mangrove Jack Cider kits that have a cider yeast in thrm, but I have yet to be able to use it. Sounds like you are going to be the guinea pig.
Picked up a sachet of CH yeast on my last LHBS spend.
Waiting for fresh-pressed cider season to start later this month.
