Salt Spring Wild Cider presses wild-fermented ciders from the island's heritage apples and pears: a Dry Cider from over 30 organic varieties, a Semi-Dry, a Farmhouse Scrumpy, a true pear perry, fruit ciders such as Saskatoon Berry, Plum, Rhubarb and Elderberry/Flower, the Orchard Run Pét Nat from their own trees, and canned four-packs like Traditional Dry and Blackberry Yuzu. There is a tasting lounge and restaurant at the cider house.
Salt Spring Wild Cider's packaged cider and perry (HTS 2206.00.15, "Cider, fermented, whether still or sparkling") can no longer ship to the US: the US import ban on listed Canadian alcohol took effect September 29, 2026, after a 50% Section 338 duty that applied from August 22, 2026. We found no public statement from the cider house about US sales; it says its cider is sold in private liquor stores throughout BC and ships online within Canada.Source: whitehouse.gov, Sep 8, 2026
You must be of legal drinking age in your province to buy alcohol. Rules on shipping alcohol between provinces vary, so buy from the maker directly or through your provincial liquor store. We only link to makers; nothing is sold on this site.
