In the perfect climate for fruit growing, the apple trees are carefully tended throughout the year. The apples are handpicked with care and brought to the farm, where they are washed, crushed, and pressed until the juice flows. These precious drops are then preserved, and with time, magic, and hard work, they transform into cider.
