OUR CIDERS
MALICE
Where it all began. Our original cider. This off-dry, Eastern English-style cider is made in honor of our cider maker’s birthplace. Crisp and refreshing with light acidity, the perfect cider for any occasion.
ABV: 6.5%
522 BLACKCURRANT
This cider is a tip of the hat to the English pub favorite “Cider and Black”. A beautiful pink cider which marries the flavors of an off-dry cider with light acidity to the fruitiness of blackcurrants. This fruity cider is the cider for any season.
ABV: 6%
VA-GINGA
We created a crisp, well-balanced cider with just a hint of sweetness to go with freshly pressed ginger juice. The result is an off-dry cider with just a hint of ginger, so it will appeal to those who never thought they would like ginger in a cider!
ABV: 6%
PIOUS PEAR
With a 50/50 blend of apples and pears and slowly fermented to keep the fruity aromas, this cider has the perfect balance of sweetness and acidity.
ABV: 6%
BLOOMIN’ BLOSSOM
Bloomin’ Blossom is a light, crisp cider that boasts a delicate blush-pink hue, reminiscent of the first cherry blossoms, and offers a refreshing tartness with subtle floral notes. Crafted with locally sourced apples and a touch of fresh cherries, it’s perfect for sipping on a sunny afternoon. This cider is a limited seasonal, only available in April and May to celebrate the cherry and apple blossom seasons of the region.
