While we at Shacksbury are known for our dry ciders, we believe there is a time and place for a sweet treat, and what better excuse than the sugaring season in Vermont? Apple, maple, Madagascar vanilla, and subtle oak make for a mouth-watering adult dessert that is balanced and decadent without being cloying.
Far from ordinary, apples are the most diverse food plant on earth. Unfortunately, only a handful of varieties are cultivated at scale in America, and all of those are designed for eating, not cider making.
At Shacksbury, we believe cider can, and should, be daring and complex. From gnarled trees on New England farmsteads to Old World orchards in England and Spain, our cider will change the way you think about this amazing fruit.
