Non-alcoholic beverages seem to be all the rage, so I was pumped to try Nashi Orchards Korean Giant Non-Alcoholic Perry which just so happens to be LOCAL!???? (to the Pacific Northwest)
Welcome to Nashi Orchards on Vashon Island, which is celebrating its 10th anniversary! I got to meet the owners (husband and wife duo) Cheryl Lubbert and perry maker Jim Gerlach, for the launch of their first non-alcoholic line coined the “Hana” series.
The first release is a sparkling perry made from 100% Korean Giant Asian pear juice, with no added flavoring. It seriously tastes like Asian pear in a bottle! I got to sample the new perry along with other classic Nashi ciders, paired with a chef-prepared seasonally inspired lunch.
It was so fresh and awesome to try the delicious food featuring local produce. I loved the rustic views with the 1930’s era barn and of course the meandering St Croix sheep????. SO cute! ☀️ Travel-wise, it’s super easy to get to. Just hopped on the West Seattle ferry⛴ for the quick day trip. The tasting room is open Saturdays and Sundays 12-5 p.m. Established in 2011 on Vashon Island in Washington state, Nashi Orchards uses sustainable practices to grow the finest Asian and European pears and heirloom apples to handcraft award-winning hard cider and perry.
