Description
Virginia Cider from the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Here's proof that less is more.

We are a small, local Virginia cidery that started from a desire to craft something with our hands, a product of science and art. Our fruit comes directly from our orchard in the heart of the Shenandoah Valley. We press heritage apples and cool-ferment the juice to proper dry, and age for more than a year. Our ciders are authentic and simple; not to be confused with highly sweetened national brands you might find in your grocery store..

Come sip a cider, try some barbecue, enjoy live music at one of our 3 locations:

Circa 1840 Log Cider House in historic downtown Leesburg, Virginia
Circa 1830 Cider Pub and Garden in historic old Warrenton, Virginia
Circa 1890 Cider Pub in historic Middleburg, Virginia

Wild yet elegant, Less is More; come see just how good cider can be.
