As we continue presenting Maryland’s cider producers, allow us to introduce…
Willow Oaks Craft Cider & Wine
Willow Oaks craft their farmhouse style cider from the fruit they grow on their farm, the oldest certified organic farm in the state.
Eric and Lori Rice create complex, dry ciders, as well as port-style dessert wines from certified organic, American heirloom apples, as well as organic pears, blueberries, black currants, and other fruits. Fabulous fruit, unique terroir and small batch barrel fermentation let the flavors and aroma of the fruit shine through.
Visit the Willow Oaks barn tasting room, open Saturdays & Sundays 11am-5pm. In addition to the award-winning selection of ciders and dessert wines you can pick up some certified organic produce, grass-fed beef, jams and other farm goodies. Willow Oaks also hosts fine artists, potters, photographers, and wood turners in their gallery. Plenty of comfortable spaces inside and out to enjoy the lovely views and finely crafted ciders.
