Some producers are terroir-driven and use native yeasts while others are fruit-driven and may add other flavors to compliment the apples. Many also focus on the clean, bright, classic apple ciders that are familiar to consumers.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_45140\" style=\"width: 410px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-45140\" class=\"wp-image-45140\" src=\"https:\/\/thelaurelofasheville.com\/updatestage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/P2P-NC-Cider-Trail_1-Urban-Orchard.-Photo-by-Stephan-Pruitt-Photography-Dig-Local-Asheville-No-Watermark-11-copy.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"599\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thelaurelofasheville.com\/updatestage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/P2P-NC-Cider-Trail_1-Urban-Orchard.-Photo-by-Stephan-Pruitt-Photography-Dig-Local-Asheville-No-Watermark-11-copy.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/thelaurelofasheville.com\/updatestage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/P2P-NC-Cider-Trail_1-Urban-Orchard.-Photo-by-Stephan-Pruitt-Photography-Dig-Local-Asheville-No-Watermark-11-copy-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/thelaurelofasheville.com\/updatestage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/P2P-NC-Cider-Trail_1-Urban-Orchard.-Photo-by-Stephan-Pruitt-Photography-Dig-Local-Asheville-No-Watermark-11-copy-684x1024.jpg 684w, https:\/\/thelaurelofasheville.com\/updatestage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/P2P-NC-Cider-Trail_1-Urban-Orchard.-Photo-by-Stephan-Pruitt-Photography-Dig-Local-Asheville-No-Watermark-11-copy-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thelaurelofasheville.com\/updatestage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/P2P-NC-Cider-Trail_1-Urban-Orchard.-Photo-by-Stephan-Pruitt-Photography-Dig-Local-Asheville-No-Watermark-11-copy-1025x1536.jpg 1025w, https:\/\/thelaurelofasheville.com\/updatestage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/P2P-NC-Cider-Trail_1-Urban-Orchard.-Photo-by-Stephan-Pruitt-Photography-Dig-Local-Asheville-No-Watermark-11-copy-810x1213.jpg 810w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-45140\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Urban Orchard Cider. Photo by Stephen Pruitt Photography<\/p><\/div>\n<p>\u201cSerious ciders are made up of only apples and yeast, utilizing the fruit in its purest form and different strains of yeast to produce flavors and aromas,\u201d says Urban Orchard Cider Company operations director Josie Mielke. \u201cPlayful ciders include those that have added fruit, herbs, hot peppers, flowers, spices and other ingredients.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While cider currently makes up 1 percent of alcoholic beverage sales in the US, this percentage is rapidly rising. The growing popularity can be attributed to both traditional and experimental producers. Though cider is made like wine, some attribute its revival to the more beer-like experimentations that have become increasingly common in the market. Fruited ciders, hopped ciders, sour ciders and barrel-aged ciders are some of the varieties available. Flavors to be found on the NC Cider Trail include Urban Orchard\u2019s Sidra Del Diablo with haba\u00f1eros and vanilla; Appalachian Ridge Artisan Cidery\u2019s Cliffield Mountain Hard Cider infused with natural ginger extract; and Bull City Ciderworks\u2019 Steep South with honey-sweetened black tea.<\/p>\n<p>The goal of the NC Cider Trail is to educate consumers about the beverage and showcase the diverse range of different ciders within the state via an interactive website. \u201cVisiting WNC cideries is a great way to support small local businesses that are producing high-quality products, helping to preserve farmland and upholding traditional agricultural practices like growing apple trees,\u201d says Barn Door Ciderworks co-owner Katie Moore.<\/p>\n<p><em>For more information, visit <a href=\"http:\/\/CiderNC.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CiderNC.com<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sixteen North Carolina cideries unite to create the first ever NC cider trail.
