Orchard Hill Cider Mill was inspired by our love of the great cider regions of Europe. We wondered why New York, which has one of the premier climates for apples, wasn’t bursting with world class cider, brandy and pommeau producers. It was just a small step from that inspiring thought to the creation of our estate cider mill in New York State's Hudson Valley. Our cider builds on the legacy of Soons Orchards, which has been farming and growing apples since 1910. Using traditional fermentation and distilling methods, our products are made with a minimum of intervention, respecting the natural expressiveness of our fruit. Orchard Hill Cider Mill produces handcrafted, artisanal hard cider in small batches. Our Hudson Valley produced Ten66 is extra-aged and breaks new ground by offering a serious look at a traditional Norman/French aperitif. Orchard Hill is located at Soons Orchard, one hour north of New York City in New Hampton, New York.
