Seminary Hill Orchard & Cidery's Delaware Dry is the cidery's signature dry cider. Made from a blend of Ashmead’s Kernel, Dabinett, Golden Russet, Bedan, Chisel Jersey, and Binet Rouge apples - all grown on Seminary Hill's estate orchard in the Cataskill Mountain Foothills

Tasting notes: YUM. Dry (slightly off-dry) with medium-plus tannins and medium-minus acidity. Great Golden Russet qualities. Notes of tropical fruit cup - pineapple, honeydew melon - and supporting notes of crabapple, candied orange, dry autumn leaves, wet slate, grapefruit, lemon rind. Finishes dry and crisp.

Seminary Hill Orchard & Cidery is located in New York's Catskills region - their cidery sits on a hillside overlooking the Delaware River along the Pennsylvania border. We first visited the cidery in the summer of 2025, and the setting and cidery were equally dreamy (as was the food and live music!). Owners Doug Doetsch & Susan Manning’s have a commitment to sustainability - the award-winning building is the world’s first Passive House certified Cidery, and the orchard is managed in accordance with organic standards. They grow more than sixty different cider-specific varieties of apple and perry pears. Their ciders are “orchard-driven,” highlighting the qualities of the apples themselves and the place where they are grown. Seminary Hill ciders tend toward the dry end of the scale and are all made without fining agents or other additives. Many of their ciders are on the tannic side, and they make an excellent range of sparkling and still ciders.

Quantity

If you're looking for a full case of this or any other cider, please e-mail us and we'll setup a special order for you. We can usually get more of any cider we feature in our shop, and offer a discount on full-case special orders. Most bottled ciders come in 12-bottle cases, and canned ciders come in 24-can cases. Some rare or limited ciders may not be eligible for a case order discount, but we can still get you a full case.

We ship cider in boxes that safely hold 4-bottles, 6-bottles, or 12-bottles. Order in one of those quantities (or multiples of those quantities) to maximize your shipping value. For example, if you order 2-3 ciders, there will be room left in the box and it won't meaningfully change the shipping costs to fill the box.

We do have 1-bottle boxes, but in most all instances it will cost the same to ship you a full 4-bottle box.

Shipping to a business address will usually save you a few bucks!

Shipping cost estimates:

Pacific Northwest/West Coast: Shipping anywhere in the Pacific Northwest or West Coast is relatively inexpensive. Almost all box sizes cost $16-21 to ship. Same is true for most destinations in the Mountain Time Zone.
Central Standard Time Zone / Midwest: A 4-bottle or 6-bottle box will usually cost $18-24 to ship. A 12-bottle box will usually cost $22-30 to ship. Variance depends on weight and how far from a FedEx/UPS shipping center your delivery address is.
East Coast: A 4-bottle or 6-bottle box will usually cost $20-25 to ship. A 12-bottle box will usually cost $25-35 to ship. Variance depends on weight and how far from a FedEx/UPS shipping center your delivery address is.

Important Shipping Information:

We are able to ship cider to most, but not all, states.
Legally, someone 21+ must be present at the time of delivery to sign for the cider. We cannot ship to PO Boxes or AFO/FPO addresses.
Shipping prices vary by weight and destination. How far you are from Seattle (where we ship from), and remote vs. central your shipping destination is, and how heavy your box is will make shipping vary.
The bigger the box, the less you pay in shipping on a per-bottle basis. We ship in 1, 4, 6, and 12 bottle boxes - order in those quantities for the best shipping value. The size of the box matters as much as the weight, so don't leave empty slots in your bottle box! Shipping 1-2 bottles will cost the same as shipping 4-6 bottles in most cases. Shipping a 12-bottle box is usually only $3-5 more than shipping a 4-6 bottle box.
Re-delivery and returns are the responsibility of the customer.
We don't recommend shipping during periods of extreme weather. If your area has weather of concern, please contact us and we can hold your order.

We can usually accommodate rush requests for delivery or pickup. Please e-mail us at cider@pressthenpress.com or call/text us at (206)395-4008.

We offer home delivery of cider orders for customers in the Seattle area, including the east-side. Someone 21+ must be available to accept the delivery. We will be flexible in scheduling a delivery that works for you. Most deliveries are made within a few days of the order being placed.
