Established in 2007
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.

750ml bottle. Pours a clear copper with a small, short lived, beige head that fully dissipates. Sweet aroma of ripe red apples, bourbon, cinnamon, molasses and oak. Sweet flavour of ripe red apples, caramel, cinnamon, molasses, honey, sugar cane and oak with a dry, warming bourbon finish. Medium to full body with a sticky texture and soft carbonation. Wow, lots of complexity. An excellent cider.

Tasting at the 4th most powerful rater of 2016 place
Light pink color. Fruity and flowery aroma. Semi-sweet flavor, candies, a bit flowery, with no depth, no cider character.
Another pointless creation from PNW cideries.

750mL bottle, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out subdued hibiscus, followed by cranberry and a little stewed apples. Flavour is along the same lines, with notes of hibiscus, cranberry and stewed apples. Lots of cheap residual sugar on the finish. Hot, sweet and fairly cheap. One of the lamest Sea Cider ciders.

Light pale pink. A bit bubbly. Light apple, with maybe a touch of cranberry. Sweet up front, despite the cranberry...that’s a lot of sugar left over from the apple. The apple character is fairly mild, and the jamaica and cranberry are mostly just rolling through gently. Not sure I wouldn’t just rather a nice straight up cider.

Bottle - Earthy, almost Woody honey notes with some sweet Apple. Clear pale gold. Bitter and sweet sticky Woody honey. Lemongrass in the finish. Not for me.

Bottle - Boozy and liqueur like an apple whisky. Clear gold. Light sweet boozy notes, sweet Apple and whisky like nots in the finish. Some caramel to soften would have been nice, a little too boozy for me.

750 ml bottle. Pours a hay color with no head. Aromas of spicy yellow apples. Flavors of crisp fresh apples and light apple pie spice. Nice and clean - easy drink.

Tasting at Matt’s
Pale yellow color. Nice aroma, intense, apples and lemon. It has a mild acidity, apple flavor, a bit lemony, mild tannins. Not very complex, but the residual sweetness really makes of this cider one of the best from Sea Cider.
