Blackduck Cidery
http://www.sustainablefingerlakes.org/map/listing/blackduck-cideryTheir family has been growing fruit in the Finger Lakes region of New York for well over a decade. They have sold fresh fruit using organic standards through farmer’s markets, restaurants, natural groceries and their farm stand while patiently waiting to bring their cidery to fruition. Blackduck Cidery follows organic orchard practices and strives to produce the highest quality fruit for their cider, perry and vinegar. They hand pick and allow the fruit to sweat for optimum ripeness before pressing and fermenting. Soil, weather, cultivar types and the hand of the Blackduck team work together in harmony to bring a finished drink that is both unique and delicious.
