imageFrom Mims:

Raleigh, NC, January 16, 2016 – Mims Distributing Company, a wholesale beverage distributor in North Carolina, has added Blake’s Hard Cider Co. to its lineup of brewing partners. The Armada, Michigan-based cidery relies on generations of know-how to grow, press and ferment its apples onsite in order to create a variety of craft and seasonal ciders in high demand across the country.

Blake’s Hard Cider Co. will use Mims Distributing to introduce two of the brand’s popular ciders, Flannel Mouth and El Chavo, along with limited and small batch varieties, to educated North Carolina consumers. Each of their cider varieties blends 69 years of apple-growing experience with brewing techniques that produce unique tastes loved by cider enthusiasts across the country.

Flannel Mouth is made with a wide array of late season table and dessert apples, a combination that gives the cider a sweet flavor that finishes incredibly smoothly. El Chavo presents a sweet, heated blend of habanero pepper, mango and Blake’s famous apples for a hard cider that is truly like no other.

The addition of Blake’s Hard Cider Co. comes on the heels of a successful year for Mims Distributing, as the company was named the 2015 Wholesale Beer Distributor of the Year from Beverage World Magazine. Both Mims Distributing and Blake’s Hard Cider Co. share a passion for quality beverages and introducing customers to only the finest craft brews around.

“Here at Blake’s, we put only the finest ingredients into our hard ciders, and with Mims Distributing, we’re making sure that our fans throughout North Carolina will enjoy access to the best ciders that we have to offer,” said Andrew Blake, co-owner of Blake’s Hard Cider Co. “We are excited about this partnership and look forward to showing consumers throughout the state what you can enjoy when you take 42 unique apple varieties and put them into the best ciders imaginable.”

“Blake’s Hard Cider Co.’s relationship with Mims Distributing is a natural combination that celebrates the best of the craft beverage industry,” said Chip Mims, CEO of Mims Distributing Company. “We know our customers are always looking for great-tasting, hand-crafted ciders for crisp refreshment, and Blake’s provides that with its impressive lineup.”
