Abandoned Hard Cider showcases a passionate collaboration between Eric Childs and Martin Bernstein, both bringing unique expertise to the cider-making process. Childs, a dedicated fermenter with a solid background in wine education and Kombucha creation, pairs perfectly with Bernstein's extensive knowledge of rare apple genetics and orchard revitalization. Their journey begins with the wild and foraged apples from rejuvenated orchards, embracing the bright, tannic, and acidic characters that wild apples naturally offer. Committed to organic practices, Abandoned Hard Cider mirrors the richness of New York’s terroir, translating it into their diverse and authentic cider expressions.

The tantalizing tropical flavors, combined with a 6% alcohol content and absence of residual sugar, promise a luscious, bone-dry finish. Vacation Cider is an invitation to savor a seamless blend of tradition and exuberance, capturing the essence of a much-needed getaway in every sip.
