Producer’s Background:

Founded by Alex and Andrew Perez, Highpoint Cider embodies entrepreneurial spirit and passion for craft. Inspired by their family’s cider-making tradition in New Hampshire, the brothers relocated to Victor, Idaho, and launched Highpoint in 2021 after over 200 experimental batches. Combining Alex’s business acumen and Andrew’s biochemistry expertise, they created a cidery focused on crafting accessible, low-sugar ciders with vibrant flavors. Highpoint’s taproom is a local favorite, offering an inviting space for cider enthusiasts and mountain adventurers alike.
