Yip’s Liquid Gold
A naturally sweet beverage made with exclusively Golden Russets, resulting in a delicious sweet taste that will leave you wanting more!
6.5% ALC/VOL, SEMI-SWEET, SINGLE VARIETY
Every bottle of Yip Cider is proudly made from 100% New Brunswick apples. We ferment and bottle handpicked apples at Mackay Apple Orchard. All our ciders are produced without concentrates, artificial colours or flavours.
Our Story
Yip was born in Saint John, New Brunswick, where he developed a deep appreciation for its diverse forests, majestic rivers and people of character. Leaving New Brunswick in 1933 for military college, then WWII, and a career in Toronto, he was determined to come home some day.On a visit home in 1964, Yip bought the farm adjacent to a camp owned by his father. He would return every summer to plant apple trees, raspberry bushes and a vegetable garden, until 1972, when he was able to move back home for good.
Yip enjoyed duck hunting, boating, and most importantly, making cider. He would pick the apples, enlisting anyone he could to help, then set out to craft his cider, which he would share with his family and neighbouring farms.
Yip’s son, Chas, caught the bug, changed careers, and became a full time apple farmer in 1980. Yip left us in 1986, but Chas and his family have been carrying on the tradition of everything apples and cider to this day.
The trees Yip planted continue to produce fruit and we are open to the public as a U-pick, where people can pick apples, take pictures under apple trees, and buy craft cider.
Cheers on your health!
