I'm from CT, the hard cider is more akin to a whisky than a traditional cider you would buy at a store. Pour over some ice, get some friends and enjoy!

went there as a child. long, long lines.

[@deniseirish8592]

the cider was so so good. put a little baking soda in it and you have a whole new flavor.

[@davegoes]

Their sweet cider and donuts are good, I'm not too crazy about their hard cider.

Baby (Jennifer Grey) is one listless summer away from the Peace Corps. Hoping to enjoy her youth while it lasts, she's disappointed when her summer plans deposit her at a sleepy resort in the Catskills with her parents. Her luck turns around, however, when the resort's dance instructor, Johnny (Patrick Swayze), enlists Baby as his new partner, and the two fall in love. Baby's father forbids her from seeing Johnny, but she's determined to help him perform the last big dance of the summer.

And slaves built all that hard working equipment they make money from.

[@88ganzini88]

No they didn't hahaha. Are you stupid? All those slaves with steam certificates built that place in Connecticut 40 years after slavery was abolished?

Slavery ended in CT in 1848. This Cider Mill was started in the 1880s.
