Phillips Orchards & Cider Mill

We let the apples shine through to provide their pure expression and a naturally gluten-free beverage. Most of our ciders are made in a natural, dry style. We explore combinations of apples with other fruits we also grow like peaches and plums, as well as the bounty of fruit grown in Michigan like cherries, blueberries, and cranberries. We also explore other combinations with herbs and hops to create a variety of tastes to excite the palate.

Phillips Orchards & Cider Mill is co-owned by Brian Phillips and his husband, Gregg Smyth. Phillips came into his share of ownership through his family, with his ancestor Parmer Phillips settling the farm in 1852. One of the ciders on tap, the 1852 Blend, is made from the apple varieties first planted on the family farm back when Michigan was still the frontier.

Be sure to visit their newest location, Phillips Cider Bar & Market (3000 Vine St, Lansing) for an elegant, cozy atmosphere, with a long, wooden bar and comfortable seating perfect for coffee dates and after-work drinks.
