She’s back, she’s beautiful, and she’s better than ever.

Our Appalachian Classic has become a true favorite around these foothills, and for good reason. Crafted the old-fashioned way, this cider is fermented entirely in stainless steel and bottled straight from the tank to preserve the light, crisp character that made folks fall in love with it in the first place.

Every sip delivers that refreshing tart green apple flavor with a clean finish that'll have you reaching for another. At 7% ABV, it’s the perfect companion for a summer evening on the porch, around the fire pit, or gathered with good friends.

The good news? We’re fully stocked and pouring it all weekend long. Come on out, pull up a chair, and enjoy a taste of the Appalachian hills. We can't wait to see y’all.
