Do you have a special place that you love going to, where you forget about any stress that life throws your way? That place for me is Sea Cider Farm & Ciderhouse. They grow their own organic apples on a beautiful apple orchard and produce award-winning cider. When you arrive, you are in absolute awe of the rows upon rows of apple trees which sit atop of a hill overlooking the Haro Straight of water between Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands.
If you find yourself in Victoria for the day, make sure to stop by and enjoy an afternoon at Sea Cider. They have an amazing tasting room and outdoor deck with snacks from hot hand pies, charcuterie boards with local cheeses and artisan meats, all while tasting their incredible ciders. My favourites are Ruby Rose, Sassamanash and their Kings & Spies. Other notables include Ginger Perry, Rum Runner and Pippins. They also have a wide assortment of dessert ciders (which I love to pour over ice cream or eat with chocolate). They also have a variety of non-alcoholic flavours to try as well.
Their Farm & Ciderhouse is also the most picturesque venue for an event – you can rent out their Ciderhouse for events, parties, wellness retreats and weddings.
We recently visited, bought a case of cider to take home and were so impressed with all of their Covid protocols in place upon arrival. Hope you get a chance to visit this special place – it’s truly a Vancouver Island attraction to check out for yourself! https://www.seacider.ca/
Happy Exploring!
