A kind gentleman with an American lab behind the bar explained the tasting and poured the "Traditional"style first. Light, crisp and on the dry side, this cider was sure to be my favorite as I am not a huge fan of sweeter beverages. The next two, Traditional Sweet and Apple Raspberry, were more of what I would expect from a hard apple cider: sweet and sticky. The last pour, Cinnamon Apple, would go perfectly with a warm apple crisp. The flavors were similar to a dessert wine without the syrupy texture. The cinnamon was a tasty touch.
The other usual suspects are available at Woodside Orchards including baskets of apples, pies and breads, candy apples, honey sticks, t-shirts and for those who really enjoy hard cider, there are growlers. This orchard is worth visiting as it is a no-frills, family owned and operated business with locals working hard behind the scenes. Cheers to fall!
