“There is great interest in craft cider in Massachusetts and within New England, and we felt that BHC was a natural fit to bring an authentic option to the area. By growing, pressing and fermenting our own apples, we’ve been able to proudly and consistently introduce a truly authentic and uncompromised craft hard cider experience to our consumers,” said Andrew Blake, founder and owner of BHC. “We have been selective about which markets to bring our products into and we look forward to continuing to expand our goal of delivering genuine craft hard cider directly from our farm in Michigan.”
“We are excited to work with Blake’s Hard Cider. Blake’s and Homegrown have both been experiencing tremendous growth and it’s a great partnership. Our sales team is young, passionate and thrives when they can sell a brand with a real story behind it,” said Joe McCann, business development manager with Homegrown Distribution. “BHC’s commitment to constant innovation, philanthropic efforts, and high-quality homegrown apples has us thrilled to partner with them in Massachusetts and Rhode Island.”
