Spring through fall there is always something good to taste. Apple products, good food & for those that enjoy alcohol there is gin & wine & cider.
One of the best Sugarshack experiences I've had!
The service was incredibly friendly & warm, the food was fantastic & the environment was delightful: they had a three-piece band that played folk conversions of modern songs & classics.
Our server told us that for generations of the family had worked on this farm & it was their 100th anniversary. At the end of the meal, they offered us an aperitif of their own iced cider.
We ended the experience with a classic baton à tir next to a bonfire.
I'd be back again!
Excellent locations, tons of apple varieties & well suited for kids & families of all ages. Tractor rides (included) for the young & old. I'd recommend getting a loaner wagon once you come in, apple bags get heavy quickly! Apple donuts are fantastic! Start with a stop at the bakery (just feet before the entrance) & grab an apple cider & apple donut. You won't regret it. Some of the best apples are at the back of the orchard, consult the maps all over the site & seek out some of the varieties you haven't heard of as much. Adults, take a quick visit to the distillery at the top of the hill & try some of the great spirits they make there, it's well worth your time to stop in & taste. All in all highly enjoyable, expect to spend about 2-3 hours here.
Creating high-quality indigenous cider in Lafrance that reflects the region's apple varieties, production techniques, & an original recipe would involve the following key elements: 1. Apple Varieties Unique to Quebec: Quebec has a rich heritage of apple varieties that can lend unique characteristics to cider. Some prominent varieties include: McIntosh: A classic Quebec variety known for its sweet-tart balance, often used in cider for its crispness. Cortland: Similar to McIntosh but with a slightly sweeter flavor. Empire: A cross between McIntosh & Red Delicious, providing a complex flavor with both sweet & tart notes. Spartan: A sweeter apple, good for adding richness to a cider blend. Lobo: A tangy variety ideal for adding acidity & crispness to the cider.
My wife & i visited this past weekend & loved it. Great selection of products in the gift shop, we got to sample a lot of different gins, ciders & their apple cider brandy (amazing!!!). Before buying anything we went & sat at the bar & met a lovely barmaid named Ninja (I believe). She gave 10/10 service, educated us on all their different products & we were so happy it was quiet that day that she was able to share her knowledge with us. Typically i am more of a microbrewery kind of guy but totally loved my experience there on Saturday. We left the bistro & bought half the gift shop... Can't wait to go back. Thank you for the tremendous service at the bar.
