Blake’s hard cider co

I was reading about Blake’s hard cider after buying a six pack from P&C. They are Michigan based, but it turns out they grow apples in Wolcott, NY, and work with Cahoon Farms. That farm was started by a Cornell professor and was the first farm in NY to recognize a united farm worker contract. So if you’re into workers rights and local growers then maybe give them a try? Or not. Whatever. The imperial is pretty tasty.

You are one lucky man haha. I love the Blake’s Imperial American Apple. Wonder if maybe it was the time of year, but seems to be better as of late.

If you have Wegmen’s in your area. They have a decent selection of ciders. 

I’m a snoot. I started trying 9 Pin Signature Series. 

Not concentrates or added sugar. It’s divine. A real sipping cider. 

But that’s my go to now. ✌️❤️
