LONGDROP CIDER CO. RELOCATES TO WASHINGTON

Longdrop Cider Co. in May opened its new wholesale, production, packaging and distribution operation in Cashmere, WA to be closer to its processing and growing partners who reside in the Wenatchee Valley. “It’s where our partners are, where the people and market are, where the fruit is . . . Washington State just gets this industry and is great to work with – it’s a great move for us,” said company Co-Founder Chris Blanchard.

Founded in 2014 in Boise, Idaho the company underwent rapid growth, more than doubling its production space between 2015 and 2017 and selling into markets in Idaho, WA, OR, and Wisconsin. To continue the growth trajectory in late 2017 the company sold a majority stake to a family with significant growing and processing operations in the Wentachee Valley. Longdrop continues to operate its popular tasting room and nano cidery in downtown Boise, Idaho and has secured a space along Highway 2 in historic Leavenworth, WA for a second tasting room, opening later this year. “I couldn’t be more happy with the direction of the company. I’m a Washington native so it’s great to be here and to get the company settled into North Central Washington,” noted Blanchard.

The company is currently self-distributing in the Wenatchee Valley, and hopes to expand distribution to the Westside and eastern portion of the state later in the year. For more information contact Chris at chris@longdropcider.com or check out their website at www.longdropcider.com

11 Great Craft Cider Tasting Experiences

 

In peak apple season, decamp for these star cider mills, where farmers and producers are setting the pace of America’s craft cider movement

Craft Cider Is Having a Moment

Wine has never really fallen out of favor, craft beer has boomed in recent decades, and now craft cider is on the rise again as U.S. imbibers rediscover the founding fathers’ drink of choice. When done right—and so many in the West do—this alcoholic (and, yay, gluten-free!) drink expresses the complex flavors of the apples, which are usually sourced locally and often foraged. There’s a lot of room for experimentation, too: the brew plays well with other fruit and botanicals, resulting in enough range to satisfy the geekiest of drinker. We’re raising a pint glass to these fantastic cideries around the West.

1859 Cider Co., Salem, OR 

A wine barrel stave sign leads the way to this back alley cidery that’s churning out some of the best drink in the state. With seven generations of farming under their belts and a background in winemaking, Patricia and Dan Fox produce stellar ciders that are fermented for months and sometimes blended, drawing out characteristics more commonly found on wine lists. While the craftsmanship is meticulous here, you don’t have to worry about encountering any snobbery. 1859 is a true social spot with a regular lineup of events, from storytelling to salsa dancing.

Finnriver Farm & Cidery, Chimacum, WA 

Finnriver—located two hours north of Seattle—has nearly a dozen sub-labels spanning from the traditional styles (like a Spanish sidra) to small-batch, contemporary varieties spiked with flavors like habanero, ginger, and lavender. It’s a Certified B Corporation, which means the owners are also committed to help better the world through sustainability efforts and community projects. Patrons are never in a rush to leave thanks to the welcoming set-up that includes a 60-foot community table outside the quaint barn tasting room; the 10-acre, organic orchard open for self-guided (and guided) tours; and an expansive, family-friendly lawn.

Art + Science, Cider + Wine, Yamhill County, OR 

While Kim Hamblin’s and Dan Rinke’s apple and pear trees mature, they’re relying on neighbors and foraging excursions for the bulk of Art + Science’s cider and perry fruit. The couple used to host tastings in their kitchen, and although they’ve opened a tasting room (one of the few in the state that’s actually on the farm), the experience remains personal. For now, tastings are by appointment, and that’s why we love it. On a visit, you can meet the cider makers, walk around the organic farm, taste limited-run styles, and learn all the nitty-gritty behind this operation that’s a true labor of love.

WildCraft Cider Works, Eugene, OR 

From the start, this Eugene operation has proven that it’s not just about a bottom line. Instead, WildCraft was built to help restore local agricultural lands and make use of food resources that were going to waste. The crew works with nearly 200 properties within a 35-mile radius (many of which are unmanaged and wild) to help harvest all the apples, plums, pears, and botanicals that go into making the ciders. “We aim to utilize homestead fruit and other agriculture that’s been ignored,” says founder Sean Kelly. Eugene locals get in on the action, too. Through an ongoing drive, neighbors donate unwanted fruit from their backyards in exchange for fresh-pressed juice or cider. A community spirit is palpable in the tasting room, where you can also fuel up on authentic Southeast Asian fare, made by a Thai family who leases the kitchen space.

Western Cider, Missoula, MT 

Western Cider’s congenial tasting room is surrounded by dozens of apples trees offering a taste of what’s happening nearby at the orchard, where the team tends more than 5,000 trees and 50 apple varieties. Within just a few months of opening in 2017, the crew took home a Best in Show award at the Portland International Cider Cup—a testament to the care that goes into this brand, built to reclaim part of the Bitterroot Valley’s apple growing history and support local agriculture. Food trucks rotate through the cidery and follow the same line: for example, Take it or Leave It, a mainstay, doles out juicy burgers with meat from its own farm and veggies from its neighbors.  

9 of 12 

Meriwether Cider Co., Boise, ID

Since opening in 2016, Meriwether (named after the famous explorer with whom the owners share ancestry) has been flipping the script on what Idaho thinks about cider—not a syrupy poor-man’s beer made from concentrates, but a carefully crafted, nuanced beverage with as much depth as any other craft beverage. Soon, they’ll expand on that education at a new cider house in downtown Boise. You’ll have to go to the Garden City flagship to see the cider makers in action; but if you want to expand your repertoire, the downtown location will offer flights with Meriwether’s own and other artisan ciders. 

10 of 12 

Tieton Cider Works, Yakima, WA 

To say Tieton Cider Works has been on a meteoric rise is an understatement. What started out as a test project with two acres of cider apples and 200 cases in 2009 is now the largest cider apple farm in Washington, with 55 acres and a booming craft beverage business that shells out 100,000 cases annually. That’s what you get when you combine a family with almost a century of orchard keeping experience (the Campbells, who own Harmony Orchards—the birthplace and still-supplier of TCW) with the savviness of a beverage industry pro (cider maker Marcus Robert). While business is booming, Tieton hasn’t lost its down-home feel: the team regularly hosts behind-the-scenes tours at their Yakima location and lets guests test out new recipes to determine what will end up in the bottle.

2018 Cider Cup Award Winners Announced!

Thirteen Pacific Northwest cideries recently took home sixteen gold medals in total at the Awards Party for the Northwest Cider Association‘s 6th Annual Portland International Cider Cup (PICC). For first time, a cidery from Saanichton, British Columbia, Sea Cider Farm & Ciderhouse, took home the competition’s highest honor and Cup—the Best of Show Award.

The party unfolded at the Lagunitas Community Room in NE Portland and drew in over 100 cidermakers and industry friends, who celebrated ciders crafted in the Pacific Northwest—the largest cider market in the United States for consumption and home to a quarter of the country’s cidermakers. The competition itself was hosted at Square Mile Cider on March 25 and was so popular that it increased exponentially this year, growing to almost 170 ciders from British Columbia, Washington, Oregon, Idaho and Montana. The event featured 60 experienced industry judges from across the nation.

Within the 19 categories sampled, judges found ciders in sixteen categories worthy of gold medals:

  • Sea Cider Farm & Ciderhouse, British Columbia: Bittersweet (English Sweet), Best of Show
  • 2 Towns Ciderhouse, Oregon: Brightcider (Modern Dry)
  • 2 Towns Ciderhouse, Oregon: Nice & Naughty (Spiced/Herbed Cider)
  • 2 Towns Ciderhouse, Oregon: Traditions 2015 La Mure (Wild/Non-Sac)
  • 2 Towns Ciderhouse, Oregon: Traditions 2016 Cidre Bouche (French)
  • Bauman’s Cider, Oregon: Clyde’s Dry (Heritage Dry)
  • Cider Riot!, Oregon: Shaken Tree (English Dry)
  • Dragon’s Head Cider, Washington: Perry (Traditional Perry)
  • Draper Girls Cider Co., Oregon: Aronia Berry (Fruit Cider – Other)
  • Elkhorn Brewery, Oregon: Very Perry (Modern Perry)
  • Liberty Ciderworks, Washington: Manchurian Crab Single Varietal (Specialty)
  • Montana CiderWorks, Montana: Darby Pub Cider (Heritage Sweet)
  • Portland Cider Company, Oregon: Sorta Sweet (Modern Sweet)
  • Rack & Cloth, Oregon: Pêche (Fruit Cider – Stone)
  • Square Mile Cider Co., Oregon: Hopped Apple Cider (Hopped)
  • Swift Cider, Oregon: Marionberry (Fruit Cider – Cane)

These sixteen ciders went on to compete in the Best of Show round, in which the head judges from each table found the Sea Cider Bittersweet to be the best of the best.

“We are thrilled that Bittersweet has been awarded Best of Show at PICC! Bittersweet reflects our farm: it is 100% estate grown, pressed, fermented and bottled at Sea Cider. Bittersweet is also one of our most traditional ciders. It showcases the earthy, spicy phenolics of the traditional bittersweet and bittersharp apples that we grow,” said Kristen Needham, founder of Sea Cider Farm & Ciderhouse.

Draper Girls Cider Co. (Mt Hood, OR) won the Best New Cidery award, which carried with it a $500 prize. Awards were given to Montana CiderWorks (Darby, MT), Swift Cider (Portland, OR) and 2 Towns Ciderhouse (Corvallis, OR), respectively, as Small, Medium and Large Cideries of the year. Montana CiderWorks was also the runner up for the cup for the second year in a row! The full list of medalists and past cup winners can be viewed on the Northwest Cider Association website.

“Our Northwest cidermakers make such a wide range of flavorful ciders, innovating from what our ancestors used to make in America’s early days. Next time you’re in the grocery store, try one of the medalists,” says Emily Ritchie, executive director of the Northwest Cider Association.

Congratulations to all of the winners!

 

Portland Cider Co. releases Pineapple seasonal cider just in time for summer luaus

CLACKAMAS, Ore. (May 30, 2018) – Summer is almost here, and with it comes the release of Portland Cider Co.’s beloved Pineapple Cider in 22-ounce bottles. Sweetened with fresh pressed pineapple juice, this seasonal cider is like a sun filled day at the beach; it might as well come with a little paper umbrella.

Portland Cider blended fresh pineapple juice from Costa Rica to its cider after fermentation to reach the perfect balance of sweetness. With a semi-sweet finish, this six-percent ABV fruit cider pairs beautifully with barbacoa pork quesadillas, Asian chicken salad and, of course, traditional Hawaiian foods like mac salad and Kahlua pork.
 

“We’ve made our Pineapple cider to pay equal tribute to both the pineapple and the Northwest apple,” explained Deron Davenport, head cider maker at Portland Cider Co. “You’ll be able to clearly taste the apple, while still getting the incredible tropical notes from the fresh pineapple juice. There are no artificial flavorings or concentrates used here, keeping the flavor of the pineapple delicate and delicious.”

Portland Cider is celebrating the release of Pineapple Cider with a summer luau at its Clackamas Pub & Cidery, located at 8925 SE Jannsen Rd, Bldg. F, on Saturday, June 2 from 11am to 11pm. The event will feature Hawaiian dancers, island and luau tunes, a pineapple bar serving select ciders in whole pineapples, a special Hawaiian food menu, a Hawaiian shirt contest and a tropical photo booth. Pineapple cider bottles will be available to purchase. Minors are welcome at the family friendly event, visit https://www.facebook.com/events/172859793375155 for more details.
 

Portland Cider Co.’s Hawthorne location will also have Pineapple cider on tap starting June 2, but will not feature any of the Luau festivities due to space constrictions.
 

Portland Cider Co.’s Pineapple is available June 2 through August in 22-ounce bottles and draft kegs. It can be purchased at either of the company’s two taprooms, as well as at select retailers in Oregon and Washington. Visit Portlandcider.com/pineapple for more information.

When Christine began to sample our team with their ciders and share the Bauman’s cider making history we knew we could have a lot of fun expanding their current distribution to our many valued retailer customers.”

Christine (Bauman) Walter, owner and head cider maker adds “Our goal is to stay authentic to our Oregon roots which is why we strive to source as many ingredients as possible from our family farm. Partnering with Maletis, another family with a long history in Oregon, fits perfectly with our values, and we could not be more thrilled to start this partnership together.”

Cider Association Releases Updates to Certified Cider Professional Program

Cider Association Releases Updates to Certified Cider Professional Program
Updates Add Material Important for Service Industry

Portland, OR— The United States Association of Cider Makers (USACM) released updates to its Level 1 Certified Cider Professional (CCP) exam this week. The updated test, official USACM cider style guidelines, and new preparatory materials are accessible on the association’s website. USACM has already certified over 400 people, and they anticipate surpassing the 1,000-person benchmark in 2018. The updates are designed to make the test more relevant to the target audience of the CCP program—the front line of cider sales. USACM members receive discounts on exam purchases. 

“We’ve removed much of the more technical cider making content and replaced it with material more important in the world of beverage and culinary professionals,” explained Michelle McGrath, USACM’s Executive Director. 

The updated exam sections are: (1) Apples, the Orchard & History (2) Cider Making (3) Flavor & Evaluation (4) Cider Styles (5) Keeping & Serving (6) Food & Cider. The ‘Cider Styles’ section follows the USACM cider style guide, which was released just this last fall by the association’s board of directors. The guide has already had a noticeable impact on the language used by the industry to describe the extensive variety of the cider category.

Paul Vander Heide, USACM’s Board President and CCP spokesperson, shared that, “Cider is a fascinating beverage with deep historical roots and a vast culture, but outside of cider makers themselves, few people know about it. Our goal is to educate distributors, wholesalers, retailers, and bar and restaurant professionals. We believe their education will result in increased cider sales.”

CCP was launched initially in Portland, Oregon at the 2016 CiderCon, the association’s annual membership meeting and industry conference. The original visionary architect of the program was David Cordtz of Sonoma Cider. It was designed to be akin to the Cicerone program for the beer industry or the sommelier program for the wine industry. 

In fall of 2017, USACM added a working group of four industry professionals to help further develop the CCP program. The committee includes Jennie Dorsey of Schilling Cider, Eric West of the Great Lakes International Cider and Perry Competition, Brian Rutzen of The Northman and Eric McCrory of Angry Orchard. The committee taught an exam prepartion workshop at CiderCon 2018 in early February. 

The association is working with regional cider groups throughout the country to offer workshops in their areas. The goal is to help test takers gain the cider knowledge they need to pass and to be better cider stewards. Just this week, the Minnesota Cider Guild taught a workshop and purchased 50 tests for their cider community.

 “Cider’s rebirth is young and the industry lacks a unified language,” shared McGrath. “When the working group gets together to create direction for the CCP exam, they are making history. The industry is moving toward a shared lexicon, and CCP is a big part of that.” McGrath added that many other industry experts have helped build the CCP program, “It’s been a community-wide effort.” 

The working group will rotate appointees on a biannual basis. The association plans to roll out levels two and three over the next two years. For more information on CCP you can visit the association’s website at www.ciderassociation.org/certification. Inquire with the association for bulk discounts on exam purchases. 

Bauman’s Cider Company Announces New Bottle Release of Clyde’s Dry and Loganberry Cider

February 12, 2018 (Portland, OR) – Bauman’s Cider company announces the first ever bottling of their cider with the release of Clyde’s Dry and Loganberry 500ml bottles. The new bottles are available now at Bauman’s Farm and Garden as well as stores, bars and bottle shops through the Portland-Salem metro area.

CLYDE’S DRY | 6.9 ABV

Clyde’s Dry is named after Clyde Bauman, who was born in 1921 on the farm where he would live his entire 92 years. Clyde’s Dry cider is our tribute to his life and his love of the farm. It is a blend of more than a dozen varietals, including sweets and sharps grown on the family farm and loved by Clyde, farming until his very last days. It draws its tannic character from the blend and the addition of some locally-picked Crab apples.

LOGANBERRY | 6.0 ABV

Loganberries are generally one of the first berries of the season and make this a sweet, fruity cider. Logans are a hybrid between a blackberry and a raspberry and aren’t picked with a machine as they are too delicate and soft, and those attributes come out in the cider as a sweetness from start to finish.

“We wanted to bottle Clyde’s Dry first as a tribute to my Grandpa Clyde who played such a significant role in the richness of Bauman Farms.” said Christine Walter, owner and head cider maker at Bauman’s Cider. “The demand for our Loganberry cider on draught has been so great that it was a natural choice for this first round of bottling. It has such an interesting flavor, we are excited to bring it to a wider audience with the bottles.”

About Bauman’s Cider Company

Bauman’s Cider Company was started in 2016 by Christine (Bauman) Walter on her family’s farm located in Gervais, Oregon. The Bauman Family homesteaded to Oregon in 1895 and has been farming in the Willamette Valley ever since.

Bad Granny Black Currant hits the shelves!!!!!

Bad Granny Hard Cider is excited to announce the release of our  Black Currant hard apple cider! Beginning this month, the Black Current will be available in kegs and six packs of 12-ounce cans.  You can find the Black Currant almost everywhere!! Bars, restaurants, and other fine retailers such as Total Wine and More.  Black Currant is fruit driven, with a crisp dry finish that delivers depth and complexity. Crafted with our proprietary champagne yeast strain, using 100% WA grown apples, Black Currants are jam-packed with powerful antioxidants, including Vitamin C.  Cider and Beer lovers alike will love the notes of blackberry, cherry with just a hint of lemon. At 6.9% ABV, you can’t help but enjoy the dark side of Granny, a little pucker, not too sweet….just like Granny!

Bad Granny WHO??

Although Bad Granny’s heritage lies in the beautiful orchards of Washington State, her creative genesis found its roots beside her sister product, the Karma Vineyards Methode Champenoise Sparkling Wine. Owners Julie and Bret Pittsinger opened Karma in the fall of 2007, creating the first traditional style champagne in the region. As the brand grew to be one of the favored bubblies in the State of Washington, Bret saw an opportunity to partner with his long-term relationships of apple growers that he’d cultivated over several decades. The chemistry between the quality of fruit and the knowledge of the traditional French champagne method, created a unique Hard Cider …and BAD GRANNY was born!

Our philosophy remains consistent… Locally sourced orchards, Long-term relationships both inside and out of the company, and attention to detail create a quality product that can’t help but make you smile. It’s true, she IS so bad, it’s good.

Bad Granny has five styles to try: Original, Black Currant, Rainier Cherry, and (soon to be released) “In the Flesh” and Cider Master Reserve. Come visit us at Karma Vineyards, 1681 S Lakeshore Road, Chelan, Washington.
