We create low-impact, dry-farmed, natural ciders. 

Bardos makes cider in the arid climate and sandy-loam soil of Northern California. A collective venture of friends and family, we produce ciders with minimal carbon footprint and a deep appreciation for sustainable agriculture and ancestral wine and cider-making traditions.

Focusing on apples that have gone feral and derelict, the orchards with which we work are not farmed or irrigated; rather, they are stewarded in their old age. ​Without any additions​ other than the fruit we press, the ciders we make​ ​are​ an​ ​inspired​ expression of the unique lives, mysteries, and times of the trees, terroir and their fruit.
