Our Story 
Initially, the cider makers produced cider for their own needs, using the harvest from their apple orchard. The family business’s main products are fruit and berry wines. Cider became a favourite drink of the Zilver family, especially in the summer. Its taste and quality were also appreciated by family friends and clients, which led the family to expand cider production.

Apples  
The farm’s apple orchard has around 80 different apple varieties, some of which are specifically selected for cider-making.

Ciders
Zilver produces Quince Semi-Sweet Cider and Wild Apple Cider.

For Visitors 
Guests are offered a tour of the production facility, as well as cider and wine tastings with snacks. During the summer season, visitors can observe the "captured apples" – apples grown directly in bottles and later infused with apple brandy.
