Hard Cider
At Mercier Orchards, not only do we grow apples, we take those apples and we craft something truly special – our hard ciders and wines! It’s a proud tradition rooted in the heart of our orchard, where we transform our sun-kissed fruit into delightful beverages.
Our love for local flavors extends beyond apples though. We craft ciders with Georgia grown strawberries and blueberries, capturing the essence of summer.Â
From our classic “Old #3”, bursting with crisp apple flavor, to the sweet, summery “Just Peachy”, we offer hard ciders for every palate. Seeking a unique twist? Our “Sneaky Jack” boasts a smooth, bourbon-infused finish.
