Description
Sea Cider is a farm-based cidery located on the Saanich Peninsula just minutes from Victoria, on Vancouver Island. Our ten-acre farm is home to over 1,300 apple trees, made up of over 50 varieties of heritage apples.

Sea Cider opened its farm gate for business in 2007 when owner Kristen Jordan purchased the property with a vision of creating an organic farm and orchard and producing traditional fermented artisan ciders. Since then, we’ve grown to an annual cider production of over 7,000 cases and growing. We continue to pride ourselves on crafting traditionally fermented ciders from organically grown apples, and our award-winning cider is now available throughout B.C., Alberta, Manitoba, Washington State, Illinois, and Oregon.

Golden colour. Nose of apple, barrel, alcohol, rum. Big flavour - apple, rum, barrel and booze. Great melding of two unnatural flavours. Intriguing, complex beverage. It’s compelling in a way I have trouble describing but trust me when I say that this is excellent, unique cider.

Pale yellow. Nice legs. Great aroma - it’s appley but complex, maybe a bit of bubblegum, and a honeyish note. Tart, complex flavour, snappy with great carbonation. Notes of honey, peach and really complex apples. Wow - this is great stuff.

Deep gold colour. Fresh bright appley nose. Tart, a little flat. Fresh and crisp apples - very straightforward. Scores points for being deep and authentic but I’m not sure it translates into an enjoyable cider to drink.
