Description
Fermentor of ice ciders, aperitifs, and naturally sparkling ciders from locally grown heirloom and cider varieties.

Our mission is to support small local orchards who grow special apple varieties using environmentally sustainable practices. Together we grow a fascinating array of varieties to use in our ciders – old New England heirlooms like Blue Pearmain and Roxbury Russet, iconic sweets and sharps like Hudson’s Gem and Esopus Spitzenburg, zingy crabapples like Dolgo, Kerr and Wickson, and historic tannic varieties, including bittersweet and bittersharp varieties that originated in France and England. We press once per year after harvest, using the natural winter cold at our farm to concentrate the flavors and sugars of the apples before fermentation. We don’t use sugar, colorings, acids, or industrial flavorings, and all of our ciders are naturally gluten-free and vegan friendly. Welcome to cider from a wine point of view!

6/3/2019. Bottle, sample, courtesy of Danlo, cheers Ed!. Pours pale amber with minimal head. Aroma of sweet apple juice, caramel, apple pie and brown sugar. Heavy sweetness, very light tartness. Full body, sticky texture, no carbonation. Sweet and rather more sour mix to finish, with lasting warmth.
