Discover more about Hemly Cider

Nestled in the heart of the California Delta, Hemly Cider offers a unique tasting experience rooted in over 165 years of family farming. Since 2015, Sarah Hemly has been crafting delicious hard ciders from the bounty of Greene & Hemly orchards. The cidery is located in a converted airplane hangar, creating a rustic yet modern space for visitors to gather and enjoy the fruits (literally!) of their labor. Hemly Cider uses an estate-grown approach, controlling the entire process from cultivating the pears and apples to pressing the fruit. This dedication to quality shines through in every sip, with ciders fermented dry and aged on oak to create complex and refreshing flavors. Visitors can sample a variety of ciders, including their flagship Original Pear Cider, Pink Lady Apple Cider, and the unique Sloughhouse Jalapeno Pear Cider. The tasting room provides a warm and inviting atmosphere, with both indoor and outdoor seating available. The outdoor patio offers stunning views of the surrounding orchards and the Sacramento River, making it a perfect spot to relax and unwind. Hemly Cider also embodies a strong community spirit, hosting local events and partnering with other farmers to source ingredients for their specialty ciders.
