Kristof Farms Wins Big at the 2025 GLINTCAP Awards
We’re thrilled to announce that our apples earned four major awards at this year’s GLINTCAP Awards (Great Lakes International Cider and Perry Competition), the largest and most prestigious cider competition in the world.
Among thousands of entries from across the globe, our ciders stood out in four different categories:
🏆 Best-in-Class – Orchard Cider (Tannin-Forward, Dry)
🏆 Best-in-Class – Reserve Cider (Wood-Aged)
🥈 Silver – Noir (Fruit Cider – Sweet)
🥉 Bronze – Kingston Black (Tannin-Forward Cider – Dry)
Each cider represents a piece of our farm from the soil and trees. We grow our own apples, ferment with loving care, and work with nature to let our apples shine their brightest.
About the Ciders:
Orchard Cider is our dry, orchard-forward blend that’s both crisp and classic.
Reserve Cideroffers a richer, more complex expression of our apples and is perfect for celebratory sipping.
Noir is a bold co-ferment of estate grapes and apples. It’s juicy, fruit-forward, and packed with personality.
Kingston Black is a single-varietal cider made from one of the most beloved cider apples in the world, and it shines with bold tannin and dry structure.
We’re so grateful to the GLINTCAP judges for recognizing our work and to you, our community, for supporting what we grow and pour.
