Summary:
We actually didn’t know much about the product cider, but after a passionate and enthusiastic story about its origins, the tour through the apple orchard, the explanation of the process, and of course the tasting with various snacks and different types of cider, we’ve become fans.
We believe cider will be received with great enthusiasm, just like local breweries have been.
Thank you for your warm welcome and the enjoyable and interesting conversations. We truly had a great time — highly recommended. Thank you!
