Cideries | BC Cider Way

Every craft cidery has its own unique story. You don’t exactly fall into cidermaking, which means that passion and commitment is at the heart of it all. Any craft lover will tell you that a visit to the tasting room; a sip of fresh-off-the-tap cider, and a conversation with the cidermaker or someone their team is the best way to experience the art of craft cider. Use the information below to learn about individual cideries and get inspired to start planning your very own cider trail.

Ciderworks (Salt Spring Apple Company Ltd.)

Southern Gulf Islands

First we chose great heritage apple varieties with a century-plus track record here on Salt Spring Island.

Then quirky varieties from around the world that make it easy to see how the apple really is Earth’s greatest fruit. We sought out traditional cider varieties that may be virtually inedible fresh, but sure add character as part of craft cider. And then we added more of each. And more. And more.

After seven years of this, we surpassed 365 varieties in our orchard: truly an apple a day. And now beyond 450. Yes, it’s our obsession.
