Kristof Farms Named Best Small Cidery of The Year!

The NW Cider Cup, a rigorous cider competition for cider makers from OR, WA, ID, MT, and BC, announced the winners of their 2024 awards last night at Holocene in Portland, Oregon. We won the award for Best Small Cidery of the Year!! Plus, our brand-new Whisper cider, a low ABV cider that is delicious, flavorful and refreshing, took home a gold medal, and our Orchard Cider, a blend of a dozen varieties of heirloom apples, took home a silver medal. We can practically hear our apples singing with delight!

It was also a great showing by our cider maker Christine Walters from Bauman’s Cider who earned the most awards, including Best in Show and Best Medium Sized Cidery.

We are delighted that our apples and the soils that support them are gaining recognition! We hope you’ll have a try at some of our ciders!

Hats off to all of the NW Cider Cup 2024 winners and thank you to our entire cider community - the makers, the industry professionals, the enthusiasts, and the drinkers alike.
