NY Cider
Signature
6.7% ABV
Crafted with 100% New York apples, our flagship cider is off-dry, crisp, and refreshing.
Ginger
6.7% ABV
A spicy yet balanced cider created from a blend of dessert apples from Samascott Orchards and infused with ginger and orange peel.
This cider is perfect year round – the citrus makes it bright and refreshing for summer while the ginger keeps it warm and spicy for winter.
Blueberry Light
3.9% ABV
Fresh-pressed New York apples and sun-ripened blueberries from Lagoner Farms in Williamson, NY are blended with blueberry herbal tea from Short and Stout in Albany to create a juicy, fruit-forward sparkling cider. Light in alcohol and calories. Big on taste. Slightly sweet with a smooth, easy finish. Nothing artificial. Ever.
Imperial
8.3% ABV
Our Imperial cider is crafted with a blend of high-sugar content apples: Gold Rush, Golden Delicious, Franklin, Harrison, and Golden Russet from Five Branches in Williamson, NY. These unique apple varieties naturally create a higher alcohol content, perfect for a bold Imperial cider.
Honey Hibiscus
6.7% ABV
Nine Pin’s Honey Hibiscus cider is crafted with 100% New York apples from Samascott Orchards. This cider is infused with hibiscus starfruit green tea from Short and Stout Tea and sweetened with a touch of New York honey from Southern Adirondack Apiaries for a bright and botanical cider thanks to our local pollinators. Honey Hibiscus is perfect to usher in the spring weather.
Black Cherry
6.9% ABV
Nine Pin’s Black Cherry is crafted from 100% New York apples from Samascott Orchards. This cider is blended with sweet cherries from Bittner-Singer Orchards and black currants from Walnut Grove Farm to create the perfect balance of sweet and tart flavor.
Hopped Cider
6.5% ABV
Quince
6.2% ABV
This cider is crafted from 100% quince from Orchard Dale Fruit in Waterport, NY. The result is a light bodied, refreshing cider that has notes of pineapple and bubblegum and a beautiful golden hue.
Melrose
7% ABV
This is a single varietal cider crafted from 100% Melrose apples. The result is a dry, light bodied, slightly acidic cider hiding some savory notes.
Mystery Apple
6.3%
An experimental single varietal made from seedling apples from Samascott Orchards that lends itself toward the dry end of the cider spectrum, while remaining fresh and effervescent.
