CIDER Hill CELLARS
Award-Winning Cider
Cider Hill Cellars, founded by Chadd Cook, the 3rd generation of the Cook family is located on the farm. The first hard cider orchard was planted here in 2012 and then in 2017 the cidery officially opened producing what is known as Orchard Cider. This is hard cider made only from our own fruit that is planted, grown, harvested and pressed here on our 145 acre farm. With 10,000 fruit trees on Cider Hill Farm, 1,000 of these are specifically used for the hard cider making process.
Cider Blends
"This cidery will only be as big as our orchards can support and our land can sustain. In a rare position to create cider that is truly orchard to bottle, we can oversee 100% of the production process. From planting, pruning, picking, pressing, to fermentation, every aspect of what we do is guided towards producing cider of the highest quality." – Chadd Cook, Founder of Cider Hill Cellars
