Aaron Burr Cidery has become the sought-after icon of local, traditional cider making. This small homestead farm dates back to the early 1800s and is located in Wurtsboro, NY, in the neighboring Sullivan County. Andy Brennan and Polly Giragosian are dedicated to making “true cider,” their main source of apples are those that they forage themselves around the Hudson Valley and Lower Catskills.
