Original Sin cider is proudly made in the United States, specifically in the state of New York. New York is known for its rich apple-growing heritage and is the second largest apple-producing state in the country. As an expert sommelier and brewer, I have had the pleasure of visiting cideries in New York and witnessing firsthand the dedication and passion that goes into crafting Original Sin cider.
New York State offers the perfect climate and fertile soil for apple orchards, resulting in a diverse selection of apple varieties. From the crisp and tart Granny Smith apples to the sweet and aromatic Honeycrisp apples, New York's apple orchards are a treasure trove of flavors. These locally sourced, freshly pressed New York apples are the foundation of Original Sin cider, ensuring a truly authentic and high-quality product.
I remember visiting one particular apple orchard in upstate New York, where I had the opportunity to see the apple trees laden with ripe fruit. The sight of rows upon rows of apple trees stretching out before me was truly awe-inspiring. It was a beautiful autumn day, and the air was filled with the sweet scent of apples. As I walked through the orchard, I couldn't help but feel a sense of connection to the land and the hardworking farmers who nurtured these apple trees.
The process of making Original Sin cider begins with the careful selection of the best apples from these New York orchards. The apples are then pressed to extract their juice, which is the heart and soul of the cider. The freshly pressed juice is then fermented using traditional cider-making techniques, allowing the natural sugars in the apples to transform into alcohol. This fermentation process is what gives Original Sin cider its unique and complex flavors.
I have had the pleasure of tasting Original Sin cider on multiple occasions, and each time, I am struck by its crispness and the bright, natural flavors of the apples. The cider has a perfect balance of sweetness and acidity, making it incredibly refreshing and enjoyable. Whether enjoyed on its own or paired with a delicious meal, Original Sin cider is a true delight for the senses.
