Island Orchard Cider - Ellison Bay, Wisconsin

Probably the biggest selection of ciders I have ever seen. Yet alone seen any company all produce. There is defiently a cider here for everyone. Cute little space, offering glasses, flights, bottles, etc. No hot food, but offer small snacks. Great and big outdoor space. Parking lot in back and on the side, plus some street parking. Nice staff. Overall, liked their ciders and the uniqueness of each like the oak or lavender. Also loved the cherry cider! I would go back, these pack a punch though, so be prepared!

It had been a few years since I stopped in, and was pleasantly surprised by their improvements to the space and cider offerings…it was always very good but now it’s even better with more space for tastings and cider flavors on tap. There is such a great variety! We enjoyed the four small-batch ciders in our flight. Can’t wait to come back and build a charcuterie picnic to take with our next bottle of cider!

Stopped by after seeing their cider product in the nearby coffee shop down the road, and so glad we did. The server was incredibly helpful and let us try samples of many drinks. We then bought six bottles of cider and the carrying tote bag. Everything tasted amazing, especially the lavender cider. Got a couple of gifts here. Didn't have a flight because it was too early in the morning haha but would definitely come back next time we were in door county. They also informed us there is a sister cider bar in Milwaukee.

Great local cider tasting room. Almost all ciders are hard and ingredients seem to be grown nearby at Washington Island, WI.
They have a nice selection of cheeses and snacks as well.
They have a wide variety of options. Try talking with the very knowledgeable staff. You’ll learn a lot and narrow in your options to something you like. I recommend trying a flight of small glasses.

This was a new adventure for us and we loved it! The hostess was extremely friendly and explained all the ciders. My husband and I each selected four ciders to try.

The brute had 36 apples in it and was 6.9% alcohol. My favorite was the iced cider. It had a nice clean and refreshing taste.

Even if you do not like cider beer, I guarantee you have not had this. It is definitely a must try!

We will be back!

Delicious and refreshing cider! Before visiting the actual place in Door County, I bought Island Orchard cider for many years. Getting to go to the place where it's made was indeed a treat! The employees are very friendly and will let you sample anything you want! It's also in a beautiful setting. I highly recommend one of their dry ciders.

I've loved Island Orchard cider for years and had never been there in person. Our friends built a place minutes away so I had to stop in. What a wonderful experience! Finally being able to taste the limited release ciders of only seen on Facebook was awesome. I loved the music they had playing and the food (charcuterie) selection was great and reasonably priced. I'll be back!

Being gluten free, that makes me a Wisconsinite who can’t drink most beer, so I’ve come to embrace cider, but most I find to be cloyingly sweet - not this cider though! After sampling a number of different varieties here, it’s consistently dry, with a complex flavor and almost champagne-like effervescence - in other words refreshing and delicious!
I like the Brut and Oak Aged apple ciders a lot, but flavors like Pear and Lavender are nice too. This is available in lots of liquor stores now, but it’s still special coming to this shop and sampling different varieties.
