Apple Spotlight - Harrison Ciders

Apple Spotlight - Harrison Ciders

The Harrison apple is one of the few true American cider apples. Native to New Jersey, it's believed to have been the most widely grown cider apple during the colonial era. It was thought to have been lost in the early 1900's; but was found again in the mid 1970's. It is now grown across the U.S., increasingly found in some of our favorite ciders, and once again gaining a following of cider makers (and drinkers) who consider it the premier apple for cider making. 

Harrison apples are classified as a sharp variety - higher in acidity, lower in tannins. They bring a nice juiciness, and often a full bodied, fruity quality (fresh apple, citrusy orange juice notes). 

About this Bundle: this variety pack includes six of our favorite available cider offerings that prominently feature the Harrison apple. Five of the ciders are single-variety ciders, made 100% from the juice of Harrison apples. One of the ciders is a blend of a few varieties, a significant percentage of which is Harrison. A delicious and fun way to explore different expressions of the variety - how they're similar, and how they vary based on different terroir and growing conditions for the fruit, and different approaches from each cider maker.

We ship cider in boxes that safely hold 4-bottles, 6-bottles, or 12-bottles. Order in one of those quantities (or multiples of those quantities) to maximize your shipping value. For example, if you order 2-3 ciders, there will be room left in the box and it won't meaningfully change the shipping costs to fill the box.

We do have 1-bottle boxes, but in most all instances it will cost the same to ship you a full 4-bottle box.

Shipping to a business address will usually save you a few bucks!

Shipping cost estimates:

  • Pacific Northwest/West Coast: Shipping anywhere in the Pacific Northwest or West Coast is relatively inexpensive. Almost all box sizes cost $16-21 to ship. Same is true for most destinations in the Mountain Time Zone.
  • Central Standard Time Zone / Midwest: A 4-bottle or 6-bottle box will usually cost $18-24 to ship. A 12-bottle box will usually cost $22-30 to ship. Variance depends on weight and how far from a FedEx/UPS shipping center your delivery address is.
  • East Coast: A 4-bottle or 6-bottle box will usually cost $20-25 to ship. A 12-bottle box will usually cost $25-35 to ship. Variance depends on weight and how far from a FedEx/UPS shipping center your delivery address is.

Important Shipping Information:

  • We are able to ship cider to most, but not all, states.
  • Legally, someone 21+ must be present at the time of delivery to sign for the cider. We cannot ship to PO Boxes or AFO/FPO addresses.
  • Shipping prices vary by weight and destination. How far you are from Seattle (where we ship from), and remote vs. central your shipping destination is, and how heavy your box is will make shipping vary.
  • The bigger the box, the less you pay in shipping on a per-bottle basis. We ship in 1, 4, 6, and 12 bottle boxes - order in those quantities for the best shipping value. The size of the box matters as much as the weight, so don't leave empty slots in your bottle box! Shipping a 1-2 bottles will cost the same as shipping 4-6 bottles in most cases. Shipping a 12-bottle box is usually only $3-5 more than shipping a 4-6 bottle box.
  • Re-delivery and returns are the responsibility of the customer.
  • We don't recommend shipping during periods of extreme weather. If your area has weather of concern, please contact us and we can hold your order.
