VICTORY!! 🙌🏻

After an incredible amount of lobbying by entities all over the state, the NY legislature has passed a historic Direct to Consumer bill which will allow members of NYDistilled and the New York Cider Association to safely ship products and contribute to the full potential of the craft beverage sector. While wineries have had this advantage for almost two decades, small craft beverage makers have not been able to leverage this market, many of which need it to survive, let alone thrive. But finally our time has come and we are so grateful for the opportunity and this lifeline to share NY cider and our own Steampunk where it has not existed before.

This moment is one that will alter the trajectory of NY Cider henceforth, and we hope you’ll raise a glass with us for a job well done by so many over the past few years to help make this happen. CHEERS!!
