The Ultimate Guide to Puget Sound’s Best Cideries | Eater Seattle
"A family-owned farm on the sweeping Enumclaw Plateau that has crafted cider since 1982 and was taken over in 2017 by Jason Devela and Misty Frantz, continuing a legacy of award-winning sweet (aka nonalcoholic) and hard ciders sourced from the family orchard in varieties like ginger and blackberry cobbler. A mini taproom hidden through the side door of the Rockridge Country Store offers 43 draught ciders and beers for growler fills or flights (pints are pending), while the store's coolers stock a huge, diverse selection of local beers, wines, and ciders. Out front, a farm stand sells local produce, fresh flowers, and unusual handmade pantry items such as candied jalapeños, chow chow pickles, mayhaw jelly, and "Rocksalmic" apple cider vinegar aged in French oak barrels; visitors can peek at the old orchard out back, pick up veggie starts, and say hi to Lucy the black cat." - Meg van Huygen
