Cider has been core to our culture for centuries, but its roots stretch back to antiquity. Project Cider puts a distinctly American twist on an Old World tradition. May our modern interpretation awaken your affection for this ancient art.

 

Combining the best of both American and European traditions, our ciders offer fresh, fruit-forward flavors with a dry, sparkling drinkability. Project Cider begins with fresh-pressed culinary apples, McIntosh, Gala, Red Delicious and Pazazz, sourced locally from New York State. The juices are fermented with our house Belgian yeast to add character and complexity. The finished products are clarified and carbonated for a spirited sparkle. Medium-bodied yet notably dry, these ciders finish long and slow, with soft, lingering tannins.

Aromas of orange peel, grapefruit and honey burst from the glass. Bright, fresh flavors of ripe melon, pear and citrus zest accompany a lively, pleasant tartness.

CHAI CIDER

This innovative foray into the flavors of fall is part of a groundbreaking collaboration with Harney & Sons, New York-based blenders of fine teas since 1983. Beginning with fresh-pressed culinary varietals including McIntosh, Gala, Red Delicious and Pazazz, we ferment with our Belgian house yeast before adding a specially-formulated chai tea.

CARAMEL CIDER

Cider has been at the core of our culture for centuries, dating back to ancient times. Building on this tradition and drawing inspiration from hand-dipped caramel apples from the county fair, Caramel Cider is a semi-sweet hard cider that marries smooth caramel sweetness, Belgian candi sugar, and NYS apples. Bursting with notes of vanilla, toffee, and caramel, enjoy this crisp combination of old and new world flavors.

While delicious and perfect on their own, we also recommend pairing these ciders with creamy cheeses like brie, cleansing the palate without overwhelming the flavor, or spicy Thai food, with their bright fruit of the ciders complementing the sweet heat.
