For the spring this year, Tieton Cider Works launched a unique flavored cider to capture the essence of the season. As Tieton’s Cider Maker Marcus Robert puts it: "This cider really reminds me of Spring. Everything is starting to come into bloom and the bees are starting to work. The lavender in this cider is slight but it’s there and the honey gives it a great mouthfeel and balance."
As a farm-based craft cider company, Tieton Cider Works took care to prepare its Lavender Honey Cider with locally sourced honey and whole lavender buds.
Tieton Cider Works' Lavender Honey Cider was the first creation in its Seasonal Draft Program, meaning that the limited-edition ciders are only available in on draft only at select locations.
