Welcome to
the Highlands of the Island
Discover premium natural ciders
crafted in the traditional UK-style.
Pure Fermented Apple Bliss in a Bottle
At Riverdale Orchard & Cidery, we’re dedicated to crafting artisanal hard ciders that celebrate the humble-yet-mighty apple.
In the longstanding tradition of the UK-style ciders from our home country of Scotland, we do not add anything to our ciders – no sulfites, yeasts, hops, grains, water, flavourings, or juice concentrates.
The result is pure fermented apple bliss in a bottle, ready for you to savour.

How do ya like them apples?
One of the Best Cideries in the Maritimes. Possibly the best! As a cider-maker, I've tasted a lot of cider from around the world and Riverdale Orchards gives me hope that ciders in our region can be smooth and elegant. Anne and Alex focus on producing a quality product that is true to form and the perfect marriage of European and North American cider styles. These guys are pioneers to bringing real cider to the maritimes!

Westborough, MassachusettsTwo Scots and their apples should be part of your PEI experience. We spent a lovely afternoon sitting on the deck and chatting with the owners of this wonderful orchard. Their award-winning cider must be tried. You'll leave with a case. Lovely people, lovely setting and outstanding cider!

Akureyri, IcelandReally Good Cider and Experience. A few friends and I stopped at Riverdale Orchard for Ciders and sandwiches on our way back from walking the Strathgartney trails. We had a great time relaxing on the deck enjoying chilled ciders and delicious homemade food. We will definitely be back.

PEI, CanadaA Delicious Reminder of Home. Immigrating from Ireland to PEI, delicious cider is the one drink I missed. Riverdale Orchard has changed that. Their product is amazing and i am delighted to see this company grow in our community.

Everything we have heard about this business (and the couple running it) is true -- excellent Cider ( on the dry & bubbly side, nice and refreshing), great location and wonderful service. We came in and had 15 or 20 minutes chatting and being made to feel very welcome. We will be back for more cider and are looking forward to the baked goods and foods offered soon. Definitely worth the trip!

Such a beautiful location run by a beautiful couple! We sat at quiet picnic tables overlooking the countryside at sunset while we noshed on delicious hand-made sandwiches & quiche and drank amazing cider (especially tasty over ice!). Can't wait to watch this place grow and see what delicacies they serve up next summer!

We dropped in this afternoon and we were greeted so warmly by Anne and Alex. We tasted the best cider and enjoyed a Ploughmans lunch overlooking the beautiful rolling hills of Bonshaw, PEI. Thanks for a great experience.

The only cidery I know of in Canada that makes proper British cider in the 100% natural and traditional way with only one ingredient - apples. The end product is very tasty, authentic, and made by a lovely couple. We will be back next time!
Will Creene
