Wise Bird Cider Co.
Contact & location
Lexington, KY 40508
Where Wise Bird Cider Co. is located
You'll find Wise Bird Cider Co. just outside Lexington, in the farm country of Fayette County, Kentucky. The setting is small-town, agricultural, and quiet, the sort of drive that feels like the trip is already part of the experience.
Most guests punch 1170 Manchester Street, Lexington into their phone and let GPS do the work, the entrance is signed from the road and there's a parking area once you turn in.
Plan on making it a mini road trip. The surrounding Fayette County back roads are worth the detour in fall color, and Lexington itself usually has a farmers market or cider stop within a few minutes of the orchard.
