Albee Hill still and dry is our longest running single orchard field blend. We started making this cider when we harvested our first fruit from our Albee Hill orchard. Now, since it is the first blend we make with the season’s fruit, and because it is still and dry with no adornments, we choose the best barrels in the cellar to blend with.
