About
While we hail from Flat Rock, our flagship flavor of Semi-Dry Apple, pays homage to the capital of our community, Hendersonville. Our families have called this area “home” for generations, and our cider is made with apples grown in our orchards and locally sourced from our community that we pick and press by hand. From “Orchard to the glass”, we are proud to keep our hard cider homegrown!

Admin Note: Previously known as Flat Rock Ciderworks, but name changed to Flat Rock Cider Company and rebranded once production consolidated at the Dana facility around 2017.

Tropical Pineapple from Flat Rock Cider Company
5 years ago
4.4/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 4 Flavor 4 Texture 4 Overall 4.5
Sampler at the Hendersonville tap room. Clear gold. Smell is heavy on dried potpourri, pineapple & boxed apple juice. Slightly tart, taste is mostly all concentrated Dole pineapple juice with barely a nod to apples. Thicker then their other ciders, almost syrupy. More like a mixer than cider. **Notes from August 2018**

Crisp Cranberry from Flat Rock Cider Company

4.4/10 — Appearance 4 Aroma 4 Flavor 4 Texture 4 Overall 5.5
On tap in Hendersonville. Visited here when it was still called Bold Rock. Sampler glass. Clear, pale iced tea, leaning peach color. Smell is of cranberry cocktail & boxed apple juice blended seamlessly. Taste is boxed apple cranberry, maybe a hair tarter than store bought. Low abv, more bitter than sweet. Slight dank & pith in the background; watery. Along the whole lineup, this fairs okay. Separately, this isn't something I want again. **Notes from Aug 2018**

Blackberry Gold from Flat Rock Cider Company

3.6/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 4 Flavor 2 Texture 4 Overall 2.5
Tall boy from Tasty Beverage in Asheville. Duvel glass. Clear, sparkly, raspberry orange brew. Smell is leafy, with strong, sharp berry & candy notes. Taste is a tart, grape juicy, bittersweet apple cider backsweetened blend. Syrupy, but well carbonated. Light yeasty note that lingers. This is jungle juice suitable for under the bleachers activities. Bleh.

Keg at Pisgah. Pours a clear pinkish color with a thin fizzy white head. Decent head retention. Aroma of tart apples, dry berries. The taste is sweet apples, berries and a tart finish.Thin-medium bodied, decent balance.
