Apples are native to Kazakhstan. If one were to hike through the hills and forests of Kazakhstan they would be among the native trees and be able to taste the wild apples that have grown in the region for millennia.
"Alma" is the original word for the apple. In Spanish, "Alma" means soul, and in Latin, it means nurturing spirit. What does Alma mean to us? It means we put our soul and our spirit into knowing and respecting the land, growing the best possible fruit, and making the highest quality Cider.
Here on the Westside of the Cascade mountain range in Washington, we are fortunate enough to live in a microclimate that is extremely well suited for growing cider fruit. Combined with rich native soils formed by our resident volcanoes, glaciers, and rivers we can deliver the gold standard for cider fruit and hope to be able to make world class Cider.
Alma Cider was born from a dream to spend the days working outside in nature and to grow the highest quality cider apple crop possible. We began grafting our own cider apple trees a few years back with the intention of selling the highly sought after fruit to cideries with in the region. Alma Cider is a family owned/operated orchard and boutique fermented cider company.
In 2020, our cider was made using locally grown Skagit Valley apples and pears. We are so excited to be able to share our Cider with you.
