The service was wonderful; our waiter was attentive and helpful. He even provided our dog a water bowl. As expected, County Cider has a variety of cider options, from dry to sweet, to chose from. The cider was tasty and refreshing; I especially enjoyed the blood orange flavour, something I've never tried before. We ordered the tacos and pizza to eat. I would probably give the food a 3/5; it was nice to have with the drinks but not amazing. Overall I would highly recommended County Cider!

Excellent experience at this local cidery!…read more The male owner (??) was soft-spoken, patient, and basically had the perfect flight for our group of 4. It was like he read our minds! He had 9 ciders on tap and they ranged from the standard cidery - just apple - to fruity blends. They also varied from dry to sweeter. The 9 pours worked out to $27 and the glasses were a good size! There were some seating indoors, inside the renovated farmhouse. The majority of the seating is outdoors, on wood picnic tables. Be aware tho 'cause the tables underneath the trees were covered in ants, there was a whiff of cow manure, & cidery is perched overlooking a main road so there are cars whizzing by. So if you don't like these things, best to sit indoors. Highlights for me were "Mint To Be" (tasted like spa water), "Ginspired" (tasted like gin), & "Just Peachy". Like the other reviewers said, it's a drier style cider, but honestly, they were still enjoyable to me and I don't like super dry wines! After we finished our flight, I made a mental note of the ones that I wanted to purchase, but to my disappointment only Crimson Crisp was available in a can. The rest of them were only available in 750mL bottles for ~$20/bottle. So I just ended up buying 1 bottle as opposed to a few cans. I'd say that that was my only complaint. A great stop in Picton if you enjoy ciders!

If your into hard cider and looking to try different kinds; recommend the flight of 4. I tried a small size of Lakeside Loganberry,Ghost Lantern, and Redbarn Sweet cider. The original location has 40 acre orchard, tasting room, production and outside sitting area. Their wide variety of flavors are sure to please all. The cider can be found at Wegmans, Consumer Sqaure, their locations to name a few, and they do ship as well. Well worth checking out, for all the cider lovers.

But that didn't stop them from welcoming people to purchase their wonderful cider in a drive thru format after pre-ordering. There was a Google order form and Black Creek Cidery advertised on their Facebook page. I ordered two four-packs. One four pack of their Orchard Tea and Dry Orchard, and the other four-pack was mixed, including jalapeno, rat bastard and blackcurrent. Pick up was the first Saturday in December for a couple hours. Everything was well marked, and directions were displayed on the Google form, the confirmation that came to my email, as well as a post on Facebook. When I pulled in, I was immediately directed by several groups of people, all wearing masks. They were all exceptionally friendly and jovial. I pulled up to the main area, told them my last name and my four packs were put in my backseat. Bonus, each four pack came with a tote bag, separating the bottles and making sure they didn't bang around, as well as a bottle opener, because you'll need one to open this delicious cider. This is the only cider I'll drink and I'll tell you why. I have tried many ciders because I can't drink beer anymore, and this is now my drink of choice when I am in the presence of people drinking beer and when I don't want to drink hard liquor or hard seltzer. Black Creek's cider doesn't leave you with that weird phlegmy thing happening in your mouth and throat. They aren't too sweet either. They are absolutely perfect. I can't wait to try the other flavors I purchased. This is a family-run business and everyone who I encountered while safely going through the drive thru was delightful. You can get Black Creek Cider at local retailers throughout the year, but they only open up their home once a year. If you want to meet the hardworking people who make this fabulous cider, stop by on that day. If you happen to see this in your liquor store, pick up a bottle, or 6 or 12. You won't be disappointed and you'll be supporting a local, hardworking family business. You can tell everyone is passionate and excited about creating cider and meeting people who enjoy consuming it.
