Imagine yourself sitting on the deck of a Smokies cabin, sipping Tennessee cider and enjoying the spectacular mountain views. The only thing that can make this experience better? Good music! There’s something relaxing about enjoying a refreshing beverage with tunes playing in the background that helps put the mind at ease. The hard ciders here at Tennessee Cider Company are meant to help provide the ultimate relaxation! Here’s what you should know about Tennessee cider and music when sipping in the Smokies:
The Mountains Have Their Music
Some of the very best music to enjoy along with our Tennessee cider is the natural sounds of the Smokies! Wind rustling through the trees, creeks flowing over rocks, a symphony of nighttime cicadas, and the calls of owls provide a one-of-a-kind soundtrack that’s unique to the Smokies. This natural soundtrack, with a rhythm as timeless as the mountains themselves, sets the stage for your cider-sipping experience.
When it comes to Tennessee music, you’ll find a commonality. From Appalachian ballads to bluegrass, Americana, classic country, and folk, these songs tell a story, much like our Tennessee cider! Take “Rocky Top” for instance. It captures the spirit of the mountains with its lively melody. Enjoying a Tennessee cider like our Golden Apple with the country melodies of fiddles and violins creates a harmony meant to kick back and relax as you soak up the beauty of the natural surroundings.
Creating Your Cider Soundtrack
Sipping on Tennessee cider in the Smokies becomes a true adventure when you pair it with music. Gentle bluegrass and acoustic tracks match perfectly with the aromas of our ciders. Songs with memorable harmonies and vocals full of heart and soul make a great pair with fruit-based ciders. Before you’re done sipping, you have to hear a country ballad, playful folk, or even a personal favorite to sing along to, adding a crescendo to your sipping experience. The perfect playlist can turn any casual tasting into a memory that you’ll never forget!
Why Music Makes Cider Better
As with cider, music engages emotions. It adds to your experience by making every note, both in your Tennessee cider and the songs, truly enjoyable. Subtle chords can highlight sweet flavors like watermelon and strawberry. Breaks in songs remind you of the crispness of our Spiced Apple. Instead of just providing sounds, music builds a sense of comfort and place, a cherished moment in time grounded in both taste and sound.

Much like the music that echoes through the hills of the Smokies, visiting Tennessee Cider Company is a cultural experience.
