The Portland Cider Company today announced it is moving its cider production facility to a new, larger location in Clackamas in order to meet the growing demand for its cider products.
The company is investing approximately $1 million to increase the size of its operation ten fold, according to Jeff Parrish, Portland Cider Company owner and master ciderist. “Our sales have more than doubled each year since we started bottling our cider in 2013,” Parrish said. “We will be able to produce over 1.5 million gallons of cider annually in this new location, which is a significant step in our company’s growth.”
The 20,000 square foot facility, located in Clackamas adjacent to Interstate 205, will open in April and replaces the company’s present operation in Oregon City. It will include a tap room where customers can enjoy an assortment of Portland Cider Company ciders on tap including their flagship flavors, Kinda Dry, Sorta Sweet, Pearfect Perry and Hop’rageous. In addition to these popular flavors, the company also offers seasonal varieties. Currently those include Mojito, Maui Cruiser and Passion Fruit. The tap room will be open from noon until 8 pm Sunday through Thursday and noon until 10 pm Friday and Saturday.
The Portland Cider Company has another location, the Portland Cider House, in Portland’s Hawthorne District, where they offer cider on tap to the public. Their bottled and canned ciders are available in Oregon, Washington, Colorado and California.
