We had the best time at Blue Bee! I already knew the cider was delicious but loved hearing about the history of the building, the company, and how they put so much thought into each batch. Brian was an excellent guide! I highly recommend whether you are visiting RVA or live here! Oh and the personalized cider tasting was a real treat.

We appreciate this wonderful review, Jenny! It's always a joy to share our story (and especially our ciders) with guests. Thanks for spending some time with us, and please visit again soon. ~ Brian

The tour was very informative and informal, much like having a conversation with a friend. The entire team was welcoming and very obviously passionate about the work they do. Best of all the cider was exceptional, the range of tastes/flavors was fantastic and each one was noticeably different from the other. If we're ever back in Richmond we will be back.

Rick was an awesome tour guide-very knowledgeable & hospitable! We enjoyed the tour & the tasting. The ciders were delicious! We were just a little disappointed as we paid for 2 tours and tastings but we only had one ‘combined’ tasting for both of us at the end. I highly recommend the ciders!!
