Cideries worth a road trip in Ontario
Spy Cidery and Distillery
With over a dozen different varieties of apples grown locally from the shores of Lake Ontario to the Georgian Bay coast, cider has become a year-round favourite beverage.
Refreshingly crisp in summer, tart and tasty in fall and warm and spicy in winter, cider has no off-season and is best enjoyed with picture-perfect landscapes and orchards as the backdrop.
Plan your next road trip to welcoming cideries and discover even more growers and leading craft makers along the Ontario Cider Trail.
