One word: unbelievable!
Before you visit, though, you must know that their tasting room is attached to their residence, so when you pull in, it will feel like you're visiting your friends or family and not a cidery. You also need to know that it will be one of the best cider experiences you've ever had due to the uniqueness of the product and location.
They specialize in cider that is aged in spirit barrels - everything from Scotch to gin to tequila to rum and everything in between. As a result, most of their ciders are still and have no carbonation. They do, however, have a few carbonated ciders.
When I visited, my boyfriend and I each had a flight of four, which came with a tasting glass for $12. It was a great way to try their different offerings. My favorites were the Cranberry Crisp carbonated cider and Cidre de la Porte, which is a carbonated cider aged in Port wine barrels. They also have several cocktail specials that use their ciders.
We were greeted by one of the owners, who explained everything they had to offer and brought us out on their spacious deck. There were so many seats outside that overlooked their small apple orchard and property. We were the only ones there at the time, and it was so incredibly peaceful.
This cidery is a hidden gem that I hope more people discover - especially with the amazing fall weather coming up! read more
