Itinerary:
Little Apple Cidery
For over 40 years, Little Apple has transformed an old orchard into an organic haven. Today, heirloom apples like Northern Spy, Golden Russet, and Baldwin — alongside English and French cider varieties — inspire their cider creations. Enjoy a tour and a tasting of these distinctive ciders.
Samascott Orchards
Samascott Orchards, family‑run since the early 1900s, has grown from seven apple varieties to more than 70 today. Their expansive orchards anchor a beloved you-pick tradition and showcase the region’s apple heritage. Friends of Nine Pin Cidery, Samascott continues to celebrate New York apples with every harvest. Guests can anticipate a tour of Samascott’s storage, packing, and pressing facilities as well as samplings of apples and fresh juice.
Nine Pin Cider Works
Founded in 2012, Nine Pin Cider Works became New York’s first licensed farm cidery. Partnering with Samascott Orchards and farms across New York, Nine Pin produces premium cider from 100% fresh‑pressed apples. Delight in a guided tour of the Albany cidery, a tasting of signature styles, and a pizza party lunch.
Indian Ladder Farms
Indian Ladder Farms, founded in 1916, cultivates 60 acres of orchards with more than 40 apple varieties. They create ciders using juice from their apples and locally grown fruit, and serve pints from their beautiful Biergarten that is surrounded by acres of apple orchards. A true farm‑to‑glass tasting and tour will complete the day.
Includes: Roundtrip transportation, tours, tastings, and lunch at Nine Pin Cider Works.
