Hidden Star

sparkling cider

Discover the secret in the apple! Cider from historic, hearty Northern Spy apples blended with ecologically grown Liberty apples brings a deeply rooted American tradition to the modern table for your enjoyment. Clean, crisp, aromatic and refreshingly smooth, like a ripe apple just picked from a tree. Hidden Star pairs well with summer barbecues, autumn picnics, winter festivities, and spring frolics.

Night Pasture and glass.jpg

Night Pasture

still cider

Subtly complex and dry with hints of creamy, ripe melon and a touch of oak, Night Pasture is made from a blend of Gala and Spartan ciders. It then rests for eight months in oak wine barrels for malolactic fermentation, producing a flavor profile rarely found in ciders. To finish, we blend it with Liberty cider to balance flavor and acidity. It’s a traditional, still cider—a cider for wine drinkers—with an overlap of some white wine flavor and softness. Night Pasture is named after our oldest orchard, where earlier generations of farmers turned out their livestock at the end of the workday. Today it’s a favorite spot for painters, dancers, apple pickers, skiers, and red foxes.

750 ml

Serve chilled.

Pommore

Apéritif

Pommore and glass.jpg

Our heirloom and bittersweet apple ciders are heated to extract their deepest fruit notes. This makes an apple brandy similar to an American Calvados. Then we take an unfermented cider and do a cryo-extraction—or freeze concentration—to magnify the flavors. Finally we blend the apple brandy with cryo-extracted ice cider concentrate and  finished ice cider to create Pommore, expressing robust sweetness and spice, radiance and warmth.

375 ml

Serve in a snifter at room temperature
to release all the aromas.​

Ice Harvest

Apéritif

Fresh, artfully blended apple cider is pressed in the depths of our North Country winter and tucked outside to freeze. At the first thaw, a rich apple essence is drawn and slowly fermented until summer’s end. The resulting nectar is redolent of tropical fruits and warm baked apple with hints of spice. For dessert, or as an apéritif at very special occasions. Serve slightly chilled.
